As we make this posting, it is the beginning of June, 2010, and we are approximately 5-1/2 months from our 2010 women’s retreat in mid-November. At this point, the following has been done in preparation for the retreat:
- The hotel and meeting rooms have been secured for our date in November. One of our leaders, who acts as our primary liason with the hotel, has met with the hotel to determine prices for the weekend and a contract has been signed.;
- A speaker has been contacted and has accepted;
- This year, the speaker is providing the theme and theme verse that will guide our retreat, as this is a retreat that she is doing in another place this year;
- A preliminary announcement has been made to the church so that our women can put the date on their calendar;
- A “save the date” notice has been sent to nearby Calvary Chapels who may want to join us;
- A timeline (Retreat Planning Calendar) has been made and handed out to women’s ministry leaders with dates various things have to be done/turned in;
- Leaders have all been assigned tasks that they will be in charge of at the retreat (we will discuss this more fully later);
- We are praying weekly (if not more) for the retreat.
Over the next months, we will be keeping you updated as to where we are in this “journey”.
