A Weekend of Personal Retreat, Refreshment and Renewal is in Store for You
God continues to offer us hope, peace, love, faithfulness, and more through His Son, Jesus Christ in whatever circumstances surround us. A weekend awaits designed for women to step away from everyday life to spend focused time in His Word, be quiet in His presence, and enjoy being a little spoiled too. The staff ladies at Capernwray Harbour welcome women to join them to be refreshed, renewed, and recharged this spring during the Ladies Conference Weekends.

She has her own business where she creates a supportive space for women to reflect and share their hearts, and hurts and grow through Biblical counselling and relational coaching, emphasizing that Christ is our hope and joy. She has two married adult children and resides in Fort Langley, BC, with her husband Rob.
CONFERENCE TOPIC
Colossians
Christ is our all in all! As we trust in the all-sufficiency and supremacy of Christ our lives will be transformed! Now, as in the days of the Colossians, there are many distractions and voices that vie for our attention and devotion. Paul wants us to know that there is no gospel or hope apart from Jesus and that in Him alone, we are made complete.
