  • This April, grab your favorite people (or come ready to make new friends) and head to Pine Lake Camps for our Spring Women’s Retreat.

    It’s a weekend away designed to help you breathe, assess, and reset. Through worship and teaching sessions, this retreat’s focus will be a simple but powerful truth: You are seen.

    Have you ever felt like you’re lost in someone else’s story? As a woman – a mom, daughter, wife, sister, friend, worker – you spend so much of your life caring for others that it’s easy to wonder if anyone really knows the real you. (Or if YOU even know the real you!)  

    Spoiler: God - whose eye is on the sparrow - sees you completely and loves you deeply.

    Pastor Kelly Dykstra is excited to gather all the girls together and share some of what God has been teaching her over the past few years. We believe it will be soooo good for you, no matter what season of life you’re in!

    Space to nurture your soul will be balanced with late-night games of Dutch Blitz, lots of girl talk, music, laughter that lasts past bedtime, and the kind of connection that happens when you finally get away together.

    Come to a place where you can be reminded that you are seen—and where, in both the stillness and the fun, you can lift your eyes and see Him. We can’t wait to spend this spring weekend with you at Pine Lake Camps.
