This past weekend was the 5th Annual Women's Retreat for Mt. Calvary at Camp Lone Star. This is the 2nd year that I was in charge of coordinating it. Always a little bit daunting when you know a group of women are looking to you to plan a fun, meaningful weekend! I chose the Cozy Mountain Lodge kit which focused on the book of Ruth. The weekend was so much fun. We had 20 women this year which was more than last year!! The women who presented did a awesome job!! The book of Ruth is so short, but when you really dive into it, there is so much packed in there!!!
We had a good mix of women...from 2 teenagers all the way up to 2 in their 80's. We packed the weekend with Bible study, crafts....one women who is an Art teacher brought clay and we made our own mugs! We also made a sugar scrub. Ate lots of good food and snacks, played games, skits, campfire, smores and a sing-a-long!
Winners of the annual skit contest....they won the Good Egg Award.
Spinners....a fun domino type game.
Part of our decorations....which also included a play house to be our "cozy mountain lodge". The weather even cooperated and turned cool late Saturday! By Sunday morning it was even a bit chilly!!
It's always an awesome weekend. It takes a lot of work to put it together, but it is SO worth it. Such a wonderful group of women to share a weekend with!
