Fall Mini-Retreat October 24-25 was...
...a success, as we connected with new ladies and veterans of the church. All the beds were full, the smell of mountain air was all around us, and we enjoyed drinking our coffee, filling our bellies and hearing Rose Hall speak some truth and encourage us from God's Word.
***Missed out on this relaxing weekend? Don't worry, we are planning a Winter Mini-Retreat also for January 30-31, 2009. So, mark your calendars and come snuggle up around the fire in the beautiful mountain air of Shaver Lake, hardly an hour's drive away.

Twice a year we have a special event, a good time for Outreach Ministry.
Hope you were able to join us for this Fall's Getting to Know You event. We got to know our pastor's wives and female staff, and their deepest darkest secrets (not really, mostly just the funny stuff and a few quirky things), and had time to eat WONDERFUL dessert and get to know each other. There were tables out displaying the 'goings on' within Women's MInistry, from Comfort Quilters to Bible studies, to mini-retreats, and more. Stay connected to find out able all that good stuff!
Look for details on our next Renew event...
Various types of special events, crafts, etc offered about four times a year
