For our room arrangements, this house has 3 bedrooms with king beds, 4 bedrooms with 2 queen beds in each, and one big room with 2 twin bunks over 2 full beds. There will also be 2 twin air mattresses in that room. So if you have a group of 6 gals who want to room together there let her know. They are all super cool, spacious areas. If you would like to room with a particular person or persons, please check with that person or those ladies then let Nita Hallman know. She will be putting together the room arrangements and will do her best to arrange it. If you have any concerns, requests, or questions, please feel free to contact her.
Opportunities to Serve:
As you can  imagine, a lot of work goes into a retreat. Would you be interested in helping behind the scenes? Our Women's Ministry Team could use some helping hands. If you are interested in how you might can serve, talk to Shannon Gray!
