We are swiftly approaching our 12th Annual Ladies Winter Retreat in beautiful Pigeon Forge, Tennessee on November 8-10! There is still time to register and get a room to join us in the Retreat!
This Retreat was birthed 12 years ago after battling depression for nearly a year. I purposed in my heart at the end of that ordeal that I would reach for women in the same battle and create a weekend together with other women where they can bond with one another in the presence of the Lord. Little did I know then that 12 years later over 900 women would pass through those doors one way and leave another way.
Each year we have grown, changed and tried to make the Retreat a great time of fellowship, reunion, laughter, tears, sharing, talking, and worship that carries us deep into His divine presence! We have 4 services with a hot buffet lunch following the Friday morning meeting....Turkey, dressing, mashed potatoes, southern green beans, tossed salad, rolls, cheesecake, tea and coffee....early Thanksgiving dinner! There is time between the morning and evening meeting for you to sightsee or shop in Pigeon Forge at one of the several outlet malls during Winterfest with 1 million Christmas lights which turns Pigeon Forge into a Winter Wonderland! It is like driving back into your childhood where everything was magical!
Each woman attending is invited to bring a wrapped gift to exchange during the Retreat. Although this is not necessary...if you bring a gift, you receive a gift. We also have door prizes from some of the local merchants along with special gifts I have prepared from home...each year we give a set of Christmas dishes for your holiday table and 14-16 Christmas wreaths handmade by my nieces and sister-in-laws especially for the Retreat.
The Ferree Girls, my 4 nieces and my sister-in-law, do the praise and worship for each service. It is a time of refreshing and worship that will be life changing for you.
Now we are 13 days away...on October 25th....the Retreat is November 8-10! The deadline for the pre-registration of $30 is October 30th. Children 12 and under are free. We just need their name and age along with your registration. You can also register at the door but the registration goes to $40.
