MAGGIE VALLEY — Women are invited to register to attend “Surrendering in the Midst of Advent Anticipation,” a Dec. 4-6 retreat led by Jackie Childers at Living Waters Retreat Center.
Childers, a member of St. Dorothy Church in Lincolnton, has worked with the Diocese of Charlotte over the past 10 years as a facilitator for Rachel’s Vineyard retreats. She is also a volunteer with Catholic Charities.
The three-day retreat is a time of prayer, fellowship and surrender to prepare hearts and minds for the Advent season.
The cost of the weekend retreat is $200 per person which includes retreat fee; two-night, three-day stay; and all meals from Friday night.
Living Waters Catholic Retreat Center offers private, group, diocesan, youth-sponsored as well as preached, directed and nature retreats. There are also many opportunities for hiking and meditative walks.
