2024 LWML Retreat
Lutheran Women's Missionary League
MN North District LWML Retreat
August 9-11, 2024
Lutheran Island Camp, Henning, MN
For everything there is a season, and a time for everything under heaven (Ecclesiastes 3:1).
Who should attend? All women of LCMS congregations are invited to attend. You don't need to be an LWML member. Bring your daughters. Bring your friends. We gather together as sisters in Christ to learn more about Christ our Savior and how to share His love for us with others.
Keynote Speaker – Pati Kachel, a Christian Storyteller, will join us to share personal faith stories and sing her gentle songs as she shares practical insights of timeless truths in the third chapter of Ecclesiastes. Time will be allowed for small group discussions and sharing.
For the past 35 years, she has traveled extensively around the world with her heartwarming, humorous, and memorable story productions. Many of Pati's favorite stories tell of women who have changed the world in both large and small ways. She specializes in performing costumed characterizations of Christian women of history and inspiring women of faith. Pati captivates her audiences everywhere with her ability to transport them to charming lands with her voice and imagery. She welcomes the opportunity to provide these wholesome, scripturally-based, family-friendly stories.
Bible Study and Worship Leader – Rev. Dr. Patrick Lovejoy serves the saints at First Lutheran Church, Grand Rapids, MN, and is the Arrowhead Region Pastoral Counselor for LWML MN North District.
