Women's Retreat — September 24-26
ALL women are invited to the beautiful Villa Del Mar retreat center in Santa Cruz: comfortable rooms with private baths, great food that someone else cooks (!), a beautiful view of the ocean, and its "own" beach. Carpooling is available. The cost of the retreat is yet to be determined, but it includes two nights and 6 meals at the beautiful ocean-shore retreat. Scholarships may be available if needed, so please do not let the cost prevent you from planning to join us!
The Rev Charlotte Pizzo will be our facilitator, an ordained UMC Elder in the Presbyterian Church, where she served many years. She has also worked in InnVision and other local charities. Don't miss this inspiring and fun filled week-end in a lovely setting with women of faith.
Please contact Ellen at church or at etshaner@sbcglobal.net for a registration form, and please register by August 22. SEE YOU THERE!!
