The Retreat
All women of the Diocese of Central Florida are welcome. Our speaker is Rachel Hauck, an award winning, best-selling Christian author. Invite a friend, sister, mother or daughter to share the experience of a retreat at Canterbury. Experience Christ’s love in this place as you share fellowship with friends, new and old. There will be time for learning, renewal, prayer and reflection. Song and worship will be a central feature. You will leave renewed, refreshed and ready to enjoy and share your life in Christ.
The Speaker…Rachel Hauck
”My whole life I’d been telling stories.” Rachel Hauck uses these words as she describes her journey from life in a well-paying career that included international travel to life as a Christian writer and novelist. The journey began with a “tugging” on her heart to make the change, and by 2004 Rachel was a full time writer of award winning best-sellers that draw on her faith. “I’ve discovered dreams are best realized when running in partnership with a living God. And I’ve never looked back.”
