WOMEN'S RETREAT 2025
FAIRFAX BIBLE CHURCH | OAK HILL FELLOWSHIP
2025 WOMEN'S RETREAT
Come to me...
​"Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light."
​
Matthew 11:28-30, ESV
We all have worries and burdens that can weigh us down, but Jesus invites us, saying, "Come to me..." where we can find true rest for our souls. We want to promote lasting spiritual formation by fostering an understanding and practice of resting in Christ that you can take home and implement throughout your normal rhythms of life. Join us as we look at the theme of Sabbath rest in redemptive history starting with God's own rest in creation to our eternal rest in the New Creation, all rooted in Jesus, the Lord of the Sabbath.
