Women’s Retreat 2025

Friday-Sunday, August 15-17 

Trinity Retreat Center

Theme: Sisterhood & Connection

Sisterhood involves uplifting and encouraging each other through challenges and successes, fostering a sense of belonging and encouragement. In essence, sisterhood transcends biological connections, emphasizing emotional ties, solidarity, and the strength found in unity among women. It nurtures personal growth and collective power, allowing women to thrive together. It underscores the importance of unity, companionship, and the bonds that enrich our lives.

The cost is $300 for a double room per person. The deposit is $43, and, if desired, monthly payments of $43 are available for 6 months. If paying online or in the giving envelope, please add "Women’s Retreat" in the memo line.
