February 26-27, 2027

We would love for you to join us for the next ANEW Christian Women’s Conference/Mini Retreat, at Camp MiVoden, on Hayden Lake, for a Season of Surrender!

If you enjoyed last year’s retreat, get ready; this year promises to be AMAZING!

Bring your best friends, your mothers, your sisters, or your neighbors! If you are coming in from somewhere in the south, bring your snow driving friends, because the retreat center is about an hour’s drive from the Spokane International Airport.

Tickets will go on sale in time for Christmas gifting!

WOMEN’S MINISTRY LEADERS: This is a great opportunity to have a conference within a conference! Allow us to serve you and your women, and give yourself a break from the planning! For anyone who books more than ten guests together, tickets will be discounted. We will house you together in a cabin, so you may have private time during breaks, if you like.

Pool and hot tub will be waiting; arrive early Friday, and have a soak before dinner! Wake up early for a POLAR PLUNGE Saturday morning before breakfast; if this is something you have never tried, this could be your time!

Have you ever wondered, Why me?

I have. When I was a teenager, I looked for freedom, no matter the cost. I wanted things my way, and I broke all the rules. I left home, left school, and jumped on a runaway train headed for failure.

Many of my choices resulted in devastation.

But God…

I was wounded, but God healed me.

I failed everyone around me, but God redeemed me.

I was bathed in guilt, but God forgave me.

I was abandoned, but God never took His hand off me.

And when I needed hope, God saved me. Life is hard, and people let you down, but there is a God in heaven who knows your pain, and He wastes nothing. What the enemy means for harm God will use for His glory.
