Women's Retreat


I went to my very first Women's Retreat. I had a lot of fun. To be perfectly honest, I only went because I am on the Women's Ministry Board. I didn't go with a friend, so I was a little nervous about what I was going to be doing. I knew the girl I was staying with wouldn't be there until late afternoon and I was going to carpool up around noon. I helped set up the camp site and then just went around to the different RV's and chatted with the ladies. Almost all of the ladies in my Fireside Community Life Group were there, the Women's Board Members and other ladies I knew around church. So, although I didn't go with a friend, I had lots of friends there. Some of my friends only came up for Saturdays events and it was great to see them. "Recipe for a Fruitful Life" was out theme for the event and we all made an apron to take home. I will be going next year too!

My friend Chandra and her daughter Abbi are now in Idaho, training for their trip to eastern asia. I am going to miss them so much, they will come home in december and leave again in february. They are doing GOD's work and I am so proud of them all.

I will blog again some more soon, I promise!
