Women's Well Being, June 9-11, 2003

Women's Well Being is a church leader retreat for women for 30 selected participants. During the retreat there will be opportunities for rest, reflections, education and fellowship with other women church leaders. For the participants selected, all costs for on-campus housing, meals, and registration for the retreat will be completely covered by the "Sense of Vocation" grant. Transportation costs are the responsibility of the participants. This is a retreat opportunity for all women to explore vocation, to remember and reflect on who and what has shaped their lives and life stories as leaders within the church, to strengthen their leadership, and to learn how to support other women as they discern their voices and vocation for leadership within the church.
