Women's Retreat
September 22-24, 2017 (Friday-Sunday)
Terry Freidlein
Terry (an "MK", born in Ecuador) has a passion for creatively communicating God's Truth through
drama, music, and spoken word. She desires to deliver a relevant message that reflects "real life". Terry
has been writing and performing one-woman skits/dramas for several years and has had the
opportunity to sing and play her
violin internationally. She has spoken at churches, women's groups, and retreats and found that saying "yes" to God has opened some incredible doors.
Retreat Theme - Bringing Broken & Dead Things to Life
God is a "life-giver" and can breathe life into things that we have "pronounced dead" in our lives - maybe that's been our dreams, relationships, hopes, or even our faith. It's easy to give up on things when we think there is no life in them. Terry wants to encourage and challenge you to get away and dare to experience God's resurrection power in a renewed or even a brand-new way! It will be awesome to experience
what God has in store.
Activities include:
Silent Auction, Nature walk, Pontoon rides, Climbing Tower/Zip Line, Sauna, Hot Tub, Skeet Shooting ($10), and upper body massage ($30), and more!
Workshop Offerings:
"Can you hear me now? Parables in scripture and your life. " - Theresa Whitson
BLESS (Women's Ministries Update)
REFIT - Jill Heaver
"My Imploded Life: God's Loving Rebuild" - Kristina Lunde
Adoption - Carol Bennett
Trailblazer Fall Retreat - Theme = 
Beka Swisher - Speaker
October 13-14, 2017
Cost = $60 (after October 2nd = $70)

A Word From Covenant Trust
It's hard to believe that it's already August; how quickly 2017 is passing by. The remnants of winter have given way to the warmer, sunnier days of spring, and the long, hot, school-free days of summer are coming to an end. And before we know it, class will be back in session and tree leaves will don their autumnal reds and oranges.
The future seems so far away yet time moves swiftly. And in-between the present and the future so much changes so rapidly. It's August now: what's changed in your life since January? What's changed since January 2016? Since 2015? As your life changes, so do your needs, and it's important to review your financial plans to make sure they are still adequate. Similarly, your financial decisions today will have an impact on your finances tomorrow. So while you enjoy the Springs and Summers of life, it's important that we prepare for the Autumns and Winters.
So ask yourself: does your budget still make sense? Do you need to update your will? What about the beneficiaries of your financial accounts? Are you still supporting your favorite ministries as much as you'd like? Are you saving enough for retirement? Are you withdrawing too little from your retirement accounts? Too much? Does your portfolio need to be rebalanced? Do you still have the time, energy, and focus to manage your finances on your own?
These are important questions to ask now because they will help you prepare for that fast-approaching future. Any one of our Financial Service Representatives serving the Northwest Conference can review these and other questions with you and help you prepare for whatever comes next. You can contact:
Steve Allison 218-297-7701 srallison@covenanttrust.com
Erik Carlson 763-253-6311 ewcarlson@covenanttrust.com
