A warmly lit wooden lodge with a pitched roof is nestled among tall pine trees against a stunning sky of vibrant purple and pink hues at dusk.

Join us for our very first Echo Grace Women's Retreat on May 1–3, 2026. Our theme will be Planted, where we will explore both Scriptural and practical methods for staying rooted in our relationship with Jesus Christ, our community and the places the Lord has planted us.

We can't wait to gather together as women to grow in our faith, friendship, and flourish together as we seek Jesus.

A large, rustic dining hall with high, exposed wood beam ceilings. The room is filled with wooden tables and chairs, and the walls resemble an old town street.

We are excited to build community and sisterhood among the women of our church. We are praying that the time spent in your rooms will be meaningful, restful, and fun! When you register, you'll be asked to enter the names of up to 3 ladies you'd like to room with. We suggest reaching out in advance to other women you'd like to know better and making plans to list each other as roommates. (We will do our best to accommodate these requests, based on availability and time of sign-up.) If you’re especially outgoing or looking to make some new connections, you can also skip this step and plan to make lots of new friends in your room!

Registration will open February 9th and close March 30th.
