Heritage UU Church Women’s Retreat, 2019.
Friday through Sunday, September 24-26, 2021.
At Hope Springs Institute, near Peebles, Ohio – About an hour from church.
Please Note: While we would love to accommodate everyone who wishes to attend, we will be following church guidelines and capping attendance for the Women’s Retreat at 30 women. Once we reach that number, we will create a waiting list. Thank you for understanding!
Theme: CHANGES.
Reconnect, learn, share and grow while building trust and intimacy with your Heritage Sisters.
You are invited to join your fellow Heritage sisters to celebrate life, friendship, and sisterhood. If you identify as an adult woman of Heritage Universalist Unitarian Church over the age of 18, you are encouraged to take time out with the women of Heritage to nurture our spiritual selves, our friendships, and our bond as women. Spiritual exercises and workshops, crafts, amazing food, intimate discussion groups, nature hikes and more make this a weekend about connecting. There is also time for self-reflection and rejuvenation on your own time – do what meets your needs! Shelley Graff will join us again this year to lend her special guidance and talent.
Cost
$270 includes room, board, activities and all meals from dinner Friday through lunch Sunday. The retreat center is open to Heritage women from 1 p.m. Friday through 4 p.m. Sunday. You may come as your schedule allows; however, the price is the same no matter how many yummy, delicious meals you miss! We recommend arriving by 6:30 p.m. on Friday night. If you can’t make it by then, let us know and we can save a meal for you.
Roommates
Often, it can seem daunting to attend a weekend like this if you’re new to Heritage or have never attended before. Know that if you need to find a roommate for the retreat, we will help in any way we can! You can talk with Julie Kane for more information.
