Annual Retreat

Every year, the UWF hosts a retreat that is open to all women at a nearby retreat center, usually in February. The retreat features worship, Bible study, time for laughter, and quiet reflection. It begins with dinner on Friday evening and ends after Sunday morning worship. The registration fee includes comfortable lodging, five delicious meals, and fun and refreshing activities. The retreat is a great opportunity to relax, make new friends, worship, and draw closer to God.
