Have you ever considered the various frangrances in the Bible? "Fragrant Beauty" A Women's Retreat focuses the many fragrances of God's story; through Biblical history, present in creation and in the beauty of yourself. Participants will take the opportunity to breathe in many Biblical fragrances, create a painting, and explore God's word reflecting on the definitions placed upon "beauty".


We will experience "Fragrant Beauty" in the midst of God's beautiful creation within the season of Autumn at our own ELCA Outdoor Ministry Site, Camp Tomah Shinga, south of Junction City. There will be time to enjoy, relax and explore nature void of ringing cell phones, noisy traffic and the ferfor of daily life.


Join a beautiful collection of your sisters in Christ as we encouter God's fragrant beauty. You are welcome to travel to Camp on Friday morning with Pastor Kim and enjoy the Camp property and spend time in conversation and relaxation. Form programming will begin following dinner Friday, November 1st at 6:00pm for those who will be arriving after having worked that day. We will return home on Saturday, November 2nd at 3:00pm.


You are invited to bring a snack to share. Other needed items include a Bible, bedding (twin) and towel. Let Pastor Kim know if you need linens or a Bible for use.

We'd love to have you join us on the float. You can ride and sing or walk along side and throw candy. Whatever you choose to do, we'd love to have you with us!

We'll be collecting items to fill shoe boxess of gifts for impoverished children in over 70 countries. Many of these children's families have fled their homes due to violence and live in crowded refugee camps.
