Stop. Pause. Breathe Deep! At our annual Women’s Retreat, all the choices are yours, whether that’s cruising on the Giant Swing, taking a walk by the lake, spending time with friends new and old, or simply doing some much needed (and well deserved) relaxing. Join us March 17-19, 2023 for the Spring Women’s Retreat at Camp Lutherhaven on Lake Coeur d’Alene!

We’re so excited to welcome Guest Speaker, Claire Strunk, to our 2023 Spring Women’s Retreat! Claire has has served in ministry for over 20 years and will be speaking on the theme “Desert Oasis.”

A little bit about Claire, she loves traveling to warm beaches and spending summers in the Northwest! Claire knows that women sometimes need permission to take a break, enjoy the scenery, and eat cake! She has been involved in ministry for over 20 years and earned her Master of Divinity from Fuller Seminary and is ordained through the Evangelical Covenant Church. One of her many goals this year… in honor of her 44th birthday, she’s trying 44 different cocktails in one year! Claire loves engaging in deep conversations with other women of faith and is excited to spend time with you at this year’s Women’s Retreat!

From Past Participants

“It was awesome to be reminded that we could make the weekend what we wanted and didn’t have to stick to a schedule!”

“I loved being out in the woods with a group of wonderful ladies enjoying the setting when I could relax for a few days and be able to put the dishes, the bills and the chores behind me.”

“I really enjoyed the rocking chairs by the fireplaces, the wine and chocolate night and the perfect blend of structured vs. free time.”

“It’s been a few years since I’ve been to Lutherhaven and within a few minutes I remember exactly why we love it so much! You all do an amazing job showering God’s love on everyone that sets foot on camp grounds…thank you for all you do!”

“This year will be my fourth in a row. I’ve never been disappointed and always come away blessed with new friends and enriched spiritual growth.”

“What a great way to integrate women new to your church into your Christian community!”
