2018 Advent Women's Retreat 

All women of the Advent are invited to retreat together from August 24-26 at Children’s Harbor.  We’ll hear from Mary Zahl, who will help us discover our Ears to Hear: Listening to God, Others, and Ourselves.  We’ll have time for worship, sacred stories, quiet reflection, small groups, swimming, and lots of free time.  When you think of a church retreat, if you envision boring worship, terrible food, and icky camp accomodations, then you've clearly never been to the Advent's women's retreat!  Don’t miss out on this fun time of rest and spiritual renewal with your sisters in Christ!  

Although most meals will have some kind of non-meat protein option, please bring your own food if you have dietary restrictions.
