A Bible Study Retreat for Ladies

Are you a Christian woman who longs to build a legacy for the Lord?

Do you want to know the Word of God deeply, so that it can reach and transform every area of your life?

Join other ladies on a weekend journey through the Book of Ruth—one that will take you deep into Scripture to find the message of faith, grace, and redemption in this Biblical account. Together, we will learn how one woman’s determined faith resulted in blessings greater than she could have ever imagined. Come discover how the grace of Christ can turn every life story into a legacy of fruitfulness!

Founded by Brittany Schlichter in 2022, the Ruth Retreat is one-of-a-kind in its purpose to study this book of the Bible, both in large group sessions and interactive small groups. The message of this book transcends the gaps of age, culture, and status, to speak to all women in every season of life. Whether you are a single, young married, mom, or grandma; whether you consider yourself an avid student of the Word or have never studied a Bible book in-depth—come enjoy a weekend of learning, relaxation, and heart-to-heart fellowship. Be renewed in your purpose as a woman of God. We’re taking an amazing journey through Scripture that you won’t want to miss!

Testimonials

…What a time of refreshing it truly was! Not only was it an intimate time away with the LORD, it was also facilitated in such a way that genuinely helped to foster lasting connections with fellow sisters in Christ…My biggest take away from this retreat was realizing my untapped potential to dig deeper into His Word!…May I never settle for less than He desires for my life. I would highly recommend this retreat experience to anyone desiring to grow in the Word with fellow saints.

Testimonials

…As a young single woman seeking to know God more intimately in His Word, it was encouraging to be surrounded by a group of multigenerational yet like-minded women of God seeking to do the same. I am incredibly thankful for the practical tools given to us to not only study God’s Word but to see how the accounts of Scripture still apply to us today! It is a time of fellowship indeed, not only with one another, but most importantly with our Lord!

~Rubí

Testimonials

We truly experienced “what is the width and length and depth and height—to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge; that [we] may be filled with all the fullness of God” throughout the weekend as we dove deeply into His Word, in Body life, in worship and in various fellowship times. The Lord was magnified and glorified in all that was said and done! I came feeling broken and downcast but left refreshed, renewed, inspired, equipped and ready to march onward, heavenward!

~SS

Testimonials

…It was the perfect setting to come together to learn more about digging deep into His Word and truly grasping it…Brittany did an amazing job on the Ruth study and preparing us for it. I’ve never studied Ruth like I have the past month. Hearing her, Tammy, and Ruth lead us closer to God, you could see and hear that God orchestrated it perfectly in His way and timing. As we spent time in fellowship and worship, whether you knew each other for years or just met over the weekend, it felt like family…I came away so spiritually filled and prepared. Praise God for all of His blessings, and the refuge within the forest last weekend.

~Lisa

Testimonials

The Bible study was a rich feast—it directed us deep into God’s Word to find out for ourselves what God says about practical issues of life. It was like a guided treasure hunt with the most remarkable rewards! Each session was convicting, encouraging, and inspiring. Learning from the heartfelt sharing of the speakers and hearing the experiences, thoughts, and insights from fellow sisters in Christ during small group discussions was so enriching.
