How Beautiful are the feet
of those who bring good news." 
 Romans 16:1-5
4 sisters meeting for reunion, 
remembering their Mom 
and walking with our Lord.

Approximately 125+ women of 
Our Savior Lutheran and other churches,
 came together for a Saturday Retreat. 
 Led by Deb Burma, 
author/speaker/women's ministry leader,
 the women were nourished 
in His Grace and Word.

The event had 7 break-out sessions 
including yoga and a service project.
A Prayer Walk with Brenda Petito 
was a meaningful session for participants.

 Learning to walk along side others

 Giving each other back massages-- 
a great reminder that we NEED each other.

The women were treasured, 
and enveloped in the Love of our Lord.  
Out time together included tap-dancing, 
singing praises, 
and talking with old and new friends.

We kicked up our heels 
and were uplifted as part of God's master plan 
and swept off our feet by our Savior 
as we walked in His Word. 

Thanks to Christine Maconachy 
 for gathering photos 
and the story for this retreat review.
