rewind: retreats for women

Our annual Ladies’ Retreat was held on April 20-22. As far as anyone currently at camp can remember, it’s been going since at least 1998! The 22 ladies enjoyed worship with Amanda Falk, and speaking by Heather Boersma, who based her messages around this summer’s theme verse, which is 1 John 4:10-12. Our activities were open, and as usual, Ken’s cooking class was a hit! It was wonderful to see this intimate group of ladies bonding and enjoying some time away from the daily routine.

We were glad to welcome Heather Boersma and Amanda Falk for our Ladies' Retreat.

On March 30-April 1, we held our first ever Mother and Daughter Retreat, and it was a definite success! Colleen and Sydney Reimer (Colleen is a member of our management team) led worship, and we were happy to have mother/daughter pair Lorinda and Kayla Block with us from SunWest Christian Fellowship in Calgary to share their stories and wisdom with the 11 mother/daughter teams. During one session, the mothers wrote letters of blessing to their daughters while the daughters worked on a craft to give to their mothers. As always, camp’s activities were open, and Colleen and Sydney also gave a special class in giving manicures! 

On Sunday, the mothers and daughters worked on gifts for each other.

We love it when ladies of all ages come and spend time at camp. Stay tuned for dates and information about next year’s retreats!
