“Fresh off a weekend full of God’s love, faith, and sisterhood, we cannot wait for next year.”


Women's WELCOME BACK Retreat

Women of SFX and our neighbors, join us for …

 

WELCOME BACK,

 

an opportunity to quench your thirst for companionship with each other and with the Lord.  Bring nothing but yourselves and be filled with the gifts of sisterhood in Christ as we prepare for Lent together. 


This event has already occurred, but keep an eye out for our next event in spring 2022 - and feel free to watch the RECORDINGS below! The three opening talks by Maggie, Avis, and Therese take retreatants on a journey from Thirst to the Search for God to Finding God in the Ashes.
