The 2013 Women’s Retreat is almost here and it is going to be an amazing encounter with the Lord God Almighty as well as an opportunity to fellowship with the women from Church of the Messiah.  This year’s theme is “Empowered & Impassioned” and the retreat will be conducted by local ministry leader and long-time friend of many of the women of Church of the Messiah, Amelia Gaillard.  You can click on the image beside to read a detailed biography of Amelia.  The retreat will once again be held at the beautiful Epworth-by-the-Sea retreat center in St. Simon’s Island, GA.  The cost can be as low at $167 per person depending on your room-mate arrangements.  If you are interested in attending, please contact Janice Paysinger right away.  All monies need to be turned in by September 22.

Place me like a seal over your heart, like a seal on your arm;
For love is as strong as death, its jealousy unyielding as the grave.
It burns like blazing fire, like a mighty flame.
Many waters cannot quench love; rivers cannot sweep it away.

Song of Solomon 8:6-7
