Threads of Grace

2025 Women's Retreat

October 17-19 | Blue Harbor Resort, Sheboygan, WI

You are invited to step away from the everyday and into a weekend designed to refresh your soul. Set against the peaceful shoreline of Lake Michigan, we’ll gather to rest, laugh, worship, and soak in truth.

Guest speaker, Caroline Saunders, will guide us through three rich sessions, searching the truths of Scripture that reveal a Creator who formed us with care, knows us intimately, and weaves redemption into every detail of our lives.

Through teaching, worship, prayer, fellowship, and fun, our hope is that you’ll leave more deeply connected—to one another, to the Gospel, and to God who holds you in His hands.

Meet the Speaker

Meet the Speaker

Caroline Saunders is a Bible teacher, pastor's wife, and mother of three. She loves to use wit and wisdom to help women, teen girls, and kids know and love God and His Word. You’ll notice that she’s serious about Jesus and unserious about almost everything else (after all, the good news of the gospel prompts us to dive seriously into our faith and it frees us from taking ourselves too seriously!). You can find her books, resources, and ridiculousness at WriterCaroline.com, on Instagram @writercaroline, and on TikTok @writercarolinesaunders

FAQ

Cost varies based on suite selection and number of roommates you have. Remember, the more roommates, the more you can share the cost of the room! In addition to your suite cost, it is approximately $170 for 5 meals (menu selections are above).

The King and Family suites are the least expensive starting points. Remember the more roommates you have in any of our group suites, the less it will cost per person/night! For example, with 4 occupants sharing the King suite, you would pay approximately $65.00 per night and with 6 occupants in the Family suite, you would pay approximately $45.00 per night.

If you don’t have a roommate but would like to room with others, click the “Looking for a Roommate” link above and complete the form. If you prefer to have your own room, then continue through “Reserve Now” and book your suite online!

Part of the retreat experience is to connect with one another and be in fellowship. Eating meals together is a great way to do this! However, if you prefer to eat meals in your room or in town, there are certainly many options. Unfortunately, you will not be able to join us for any of the dining events should you change your mind during the retreat as meals are selected, ordered, and paid for prior to the event. Also, personal food or take out is not allowed in the event space. I do hope you would decide to dine with us! It is approximately $170 for 5 meals and menu selections are above.

Part of the retreat experience is to step away from the everyday and connect with one another for a weekend designed to refresh your soul. Along with that, we will have after session activities and a hospitality suite so staying overnight at the resort makes it more convenient to participate in those and with us. However, if you prefer to commute, you certainly can. Unfortunately, we cannot guarantee a suite at our contracted rate, suite availability, or an available bed for you should you decide to stay overnight once at the retreat. I do hope you would choose to stay at the resort and experience the weekend as a whole along with us!

It’s a casual event so jeans, skirts, sweaters, leggings, pants, jackets, etc, are appropriate. What you would wear to church is a good place to start. Keep in mind that we will be a little further north on the lake in the fall and we’re planning a bonfire one evening. The weather can be tricky to predict here in WI so think layers and it wouldn’t hurt to bring a jacket, hat, and gloves just in case.

Parking is available for free at the Blue Harbor Resort. If you are commuting with a group, you can park your car in the Grace Church parking lot.

Deadline to make suite reservations is Wednesday, September 10th. However, we have a limited amount of suites in our block, so reserve sooner rather than later!

Yes, of course! Please invite any ladies in your life (family, friends, neighbors, coworkers…) who you think would be blessed by this event!
