5/4/2008 - Teacher Appreciation Day,Women's Retreat

Women's Retreat
May 2-4

Ready for a weekend of inspiring speakers, great music, wonderful food, and lots of laughter and sharing? This year's retreat theme is "As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord" (Joshua 24:15). Pam Brubaker, a hospice nurse acquainted both with sorrow and with God's grace, loves to tell stories to define the day-to-day walk with God. She uses her "show and tell" box to illustrate how the Bible speaks to us right where we are.
Pam says, "I talk with gladness about Jesus and how the Bible is the guide to walking through life on the way to the Father's house. If I were a food, I would be raisin toast - ordinary with a little something extra! To be your retreat speaker is an honor…I will delight in joining you for fun - and for sure God sightings! - as we all draw near to the one who loves us so."
Celtic Cross women will again partner with women from Fair Oaks Presbyterian and other local churches. The retreat will be at Camp Woodleaf in the foothills above Marysville. Early bird registration (due at Fair Oaks by April 6) is $110; regular registration is $130. Last year's retreat sold out, so don't wait until the last minute to make your decision to attend. Registration forms will be available between services at the Adult Ministries table.
Past participants have found they drew closer to the other Celtic Cross women during the retreat and found the retreats to be a time of spiritual renewal. See for yourself what God can do in your life over the course of a weekend!
