​Ladies, it’s time to reTREAT yourself and reJOYvenate!
 
Join us, and others from sister Mid-ABC churches, January 11th and 12 for a weekend in Cedar Rapids, IA for a time of bible study, pampering, activities, laughs, worship, and prayer. 
 
We will focusing on intensifying your joy by refreshing, clearing and uplifting our minds, bodies, and spirits.
 
Using the 1000 Gifts study by Ann Voskamp as the basis to live fully right where we are, this event will teach us about mindfulness, thankfulness and more.  It will conclude with the challenge to accept the JOY dare.
 
“How,” bestselling author Ann Voskamp wondered, “do we find joy in the midst of deadlines, debt, drama, and daily duties?” When your days are filled with the mundane, disappointment, or even darkness, how can you embrace the everyday blessings that will immerse you in Christ’s fullness? How can you live your life with a heart overflowing with delight?  
 
Take the time after the holidays to refocus and start the new year off with JOY! 
"It's habits that can imprison you and it's habits that can free you.  But when THANKS to God become habit, so JOY in God becomes your life."
