Get ready to explore “Another Way” at Brethren Woods on March 14-15th for our 2025 Women’s Retreat! During this overnight (or day) retreat experience, women (age 16+) will get away to have peaceful time together as we reorient our lives around the simple life Jesus calls us to follow as disciples. Throughout the weekend, we will enjoy fabulous food and tasty treats, lift our voices in worship, participate in personal reflection time, do crafts, and share encouragement, fellowship, and fun with other sisters in Christ, who is the Way, the Truth, and the Life!

Ladies can arrive anytime after 4pm on Friday. Dinner will be served from 5:30-6:00pm and our first session starts at 6:30pm. Our time together will end around 4pm on Saturday.

We are thrilled to have Rebecca House joining us as the speaker for this year’s Women’s Retreat! Rebecca currently serves as Associate Pastor at Staunton Church of the Brethren and as the Shenandoah District Director of District Conference and Youth Services. A graduate of Bridgewater College and Bethany Theological Seminary, she has a deep love for camp, having served as a Summer Camp Dean at Brethren Woods. We’re looking forward to the joy and inspiration she’ll bring to our time together!

We are excited to welcome back Jessica McAllister as our music leader for this year’s Women’s Retreat! Jessica studied Music Therapy at Colorado State University and Vocal Music Education at James Madison University. She works with the Rocktown Choral Artists in Harrisonburg, VA, and recently started as the Music Teacher at Peak View Elementary School. After her amazing work at last year’s retreat, we are so thankful to have her leading us in music again this year!
