“The psyches and souls of women also have their own cycles and seasons of doing and solitude, running and staying, being involved and being removed, questing and resting, creating and incubating, being of the world and returning to the soul-place.”
-Clarissa Pinkola Estés

About our 2027 weekend speakes
Women’s Weekend 2027: Human Nature: Seeing God in ALL OF CREATION
Retreat Info coming soon…
Each session will blend storytelling, reflection, and song, leading us toward a shared communion on Sunday. Our table will be abundant and inclusive, with each participant bringing forward names, stories, and symbols of women they wish to honor. Communion will be served person-to-person, reminding us of the sacred power we hold in community.
Throughout the retreat, participants will engage in small groups, creative activities, and prayer experiences. Music will guide our journey, with songs learned each evening and sung together in the culminating service.
This retreat is a celebration of women’s stories, biblical, historical, and personal, woven together into a sacred feast of agency, integrity, identity, and authenticity.
““I always love the community of women I meet at Women’s Weekend. I always feel held in Love as the person that I am, and I believe I was able to return that Love this weekend to others as well. It is such a special time and place of holding one another and our stories… It was so special that the thin place of camp was given space to speak for the Spirit this weekend.”
