Spring Women's Retreat

Spring is the perfect time of year to reflect, rejuvenate, and reinvent. You are invited to take time away for yourself, to be surrounded by a supportive cohort of women who understand just how exhausting life can be sometimes. Olmsted's women's retreats offer inspirational speaking, encouraging group discussions, quiet time with God, opportunities to enjoy stillness and nature, and Christian hospitality that will make you feel welcome and cared for. Come away and attend to your mental, emotional, and spiritual health - you deserve it!
This year's spring retreat theme is "Mystery Women." Come explore the wonder and mystery of God's love in the peaceful setting of Olmsted. We will learn about unnamed women in the Bible who have life-changing encounters with Jesus. Also enjoy an optional "murder mystery" activity and a mystery trip!
