Fall Refreshment (Sept 25–27, 2020)
Set aside time to reflect and meet God. Come away from your usual routine and hear the voice of God in a fresh way. Come with an open heart to experience God's goodness and hope! So, for one of the best weekends of your fall, come to the Fall Refreshment women's retreat and reflect, reconnect, be refreshed, and get recharged.
Registration opens in May.
