Retreat! Retreat!

>> Sunday, August 23, 2009

We are just a little over a month out from our retreat to St. Augustine, Florida.

The supplies are being purchased. The roommate list is falling into place. The plans are shaping up for all the wonderful activities and fun we are going to have!

We are praying for each of you by name as we prepare for this special event. God has something in store for each of us as we take time away from our busy schedules to slow down and bit and just indulge ourselves in Him.

You may check-in to your hotel room after 3pm on Thursday, October 1st. A light, informal dinner will be served beginning at 6pm and the opening session begins at 8pm.

Breakfast is served in the dining area on the main floor of the hotel from 6am - 9am. Friday morning's session begins at 9am and we will break at noon for an afternoon of free time. You can do whatever you like - shop, go to the beach, lounge by the pool, or take a nap in your room! Lunch and dinner on Friday are on your own. Join up with a friend or two or eight, and go out and spend quality time with your sisters!

But don't be late for the main session, which begins at 8pm on Friday night. Come in your pajamas and slippers! We will have dessert and coffee, play some games, have a little friendly competition and ... oh! Did I mention there will be a contest? The most outstanding slippers will win something wonderful! Don't know just yet what that is, but it's gonna be wonderful!

So, decorate, modify, fabricate, disfigure, adorn, embellish, garnish, enhance, construct, transform, fix up and spruce up those slippers! We wanta see some really cool slippers!
