A Costly Pearl

You are Invited As a woman of the Hydesville Church community or special invited guest we welcome you to sign up for our Annual Autumn Women’s Retreat. We will be meeting Friday evening at 5 PM, September 28th at the Triumphant Life Camp grounds in Larabee Valley (about an hour from the church). The retreat will extend through the weekend, and we leave the grounds around noon on Sunday, September 30th. Please join us for this literal mountain top experience. This is a time and place where we gather together as Christian women and those who would like to consider Christianity. We talk, we have wonderful meals, we talk, we listen to inspired speakers, we sing, we worship, we talk, we have some fun surprises, and creative interludes, and did we mention we talk...talk...talk into the night with our dear friends and our new friends?

Theme of the Retreat: A Costly Pearl: Seeking Jesus As Our Finest Treasure. Special Workshops: Saturday Evening. Food: By the Hydesville Community Church plethora of creative chefs. Just for Fun: Thrift Store Fashion Show - prizes for: “Mother of Pearls” (fashions for a pregnant mother); ”Pearly Gates” (heavenly attire); “String of Pearls” (fashions of the 40’s)”; “Pearls of Wisdom” (the ”smartest” outfit); “the Making of a Pearl “ (most irritating attire); ”Casting Pearls Prize” (the outfit that should be thrown away). No more than $5 may be spent on any outfit.
