Bringing Hope to a World in Need
Caring for Self, for Others, and for God's Creation 
April 27-29, 2018  
Hosted by Presbyterian Women of Central PC 
St. Mary's of Providence Retreat Center, Elverson, PA 
 
How do we remain hopeful in a world that distracts with worries and concerns both personally and communally. In this retreat we will have time for quiet reflection, small groups to nurture ourselves and support each other. In the quiet we will work on creating our own peaceful and hopeful spaces. We will worship together, sing, and walk in God's creation.
 
Our Speaker will be Betsy Friend who has led spiritual retreats for 30 years. She is a pastoral counselor and partner with her husband, Howard, in their foundation in Mexico working with wheelchair projects, education initiatives, and pre-school breakfast programs.
