April 18-19 and
April 19-20

Women of all ages, stages of life, and Christian experience are invited to gather for a time of refreshment, reflection, and spiritual challenge at Lake Aurora's Women's Retreats.

An invitation to refresh...

If you need to be alone with the Lord, feel free to skip a session and slip away to the wood for a quiet time, take a nap, or visit the bookstore. We want this retreat to meet your needs.

Keynote Speaker...

    We are very excited to have Mary Lou return to us for a second year. Her life experiences and love of the Lord are perfect for communicating the 2008 theme of "He Loves me". She comes to us from Southwest Christian Church in East Point, GA where she and her husband, Thom, have been in ministry since 1990.
    College campus ministry has been an important part of Mary Lou’s ministry over 35 years at Florida State University, Georgia Tech, and Atlanta Christian College. In fact, they began the campus ministry at FSU in Tallahassee in 1970 and continued ministering there for 20 years. This was the first Christian Church campus ministry in Florida.
     Women’s ministry is important to Mary Lou as she serves in her church through Bible Study, mentoring, and fellowship groups that foster personal growth. She and her husband work together in leading Marriage Enrichment Seminars throughout the United States and she is involved in speaking at women’s meetings, retreats, and seminars.

Important Times

Housing

There are 20 beds available in the dorms/cabins. Please state if your lodging will not be in the dorms or on campus. In order to accommodate 300, we need as many as possible to bring their tents and campers.

If your group wants to stay together, please send all registrations in at the same time.

What to bring

Dress is casual--slacks or shorts. Comfortable walking shoes, raingear, and sweaters are suggested. You will need bedding, blanket, towels, etc. for sleeping in the dorms. Other suggestions include a Bible, notebook, pencil, lawn chair, scrapbook material, board games, insect repellant, etc.

Please note...

We realize mothers with babies and small children would benefit from attending the retreat. However, we do not have facilities to care for children and it is best they do not attend. Please remember this is a retreat for women only.
