Moms and Daughters Retreat

Our goal for this retreat is for you to deepen your relationship with each other and the Lord through new activities, workshops, Biblical teaching, worship, meeting new friends and so much more.

May 10-12, 2024

Get away, grow together. 

Spend more time together than just in the carpool line. An uninterrupted weekend together away from the distractions of homework and meal schedules. 

This retreat is for more than just moms and daughters. Invite all the important women and girls in your life to join in on the memories at camp. Aunts, grandmas, friends, sisters and daughters of all ages are welcome to attend.

Have fun experiencing new things. The camp environment, surrounded by nature, provides opportunities for walks, adventure activities, boat rides and just breathing in fresh air. Located about a mile from downtown Lake Geneva, spend some time exploring the small town coffee shops, boutiques, ice cream parlors and more. 

Planned activity times partner well with downtime in order to rest and recharge. Connect with each other and new friends as we all grow in faith. 

Quality Time

This year, we are shifting away from choosing one or two workshops and opening up activity time for you to try even more activities. In the morning we will have “Quality Time.” There will be multiple activities for you to join throughout the morning at any speed or pace you would like. You can stay at one the whole time, or hop back and forth.
