2010 Oklahoma
Ladies' Retreat
"inter··rupted"
"How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of those who bring good news, who proclaim peace, who bring good tidings, who proclaim salvation..."
Isaiah 52:7
April 16-17, 2010
Falls Creek Conference Center
Many of us have been there—a little too comfortable in our “church” life. We may be going through the motions and settled into the comforts inside our church walls. But what happens when God calls you out of comfort and cause an interruption that leads you on an adventure of faith? Are you ready for a journey of finding joy, love, purpose and most of all, Jesus? Don’t miss out on the interruption God may have for you this year at the Oklahoma Ladies’ Retreat.
