Womens Retreat <strong>2017</strong><br />
All attendees of the Womens Retreat weekend<br />
Ladies from around South NSW have again enjoyed<br />
a wonderful retreat at the Adventist Alpine Village.<br />
Under the leadership of Heather Buchanan, the Wagga<br />
Wagga ‘girls’ had a special time for all. Sherryn Kieltyka,<br />
who works with ADRA, came all the way from Ethiopia to<br />
share insights from The Word around the theme JOY! Her<br />
messages touched lives.<br />
Guest Speaker Sherryn Kieltyka<br />
Prayer, praise, fellowship, good food and fun all contributed<br />
to this being a time of spiritual nurture. Looking beyond<br />
ourselves and seeing needs led to the generous<br />
giving of $2,360 in an offering for New Hope Orphanage,<br />
which is supported by ADRA Ethiopia.<br />
Of the 133 registered, a large number were first-time<br />
attenders. Teens shared the time with the more experienced<br />
ladies and added a special energy to the weekend.<br />
From all reports everyone thoroughly enjoyed the <strong>2017</strong><br />
experience.<br />
South NSW ladies are invited to save the date for our retreat<br />
next year, 2018. The South Canberra ladies with the<br />
support of some from Canberra National are preparing a<br />
special time for the last weekend in May, 25-27th.<br />
