Ladies, sign up and pay up

The deadline for signing up for the Scandinavian Women's Retreat is only a few weeks away, so here's how you can still book your spot.

From May 1st to May 3rd (Friday to Sunday), women from various corners of Scandinavia will gather to spend a few days seeking God together and getting refreshed by His Word. The event is only the second Calvary Chapel Women’s Retreat in Scandinavia, following the successful gathering of 12 women in the spring of 2008.

”We really enjoyed the retreat last spring, and we’ve been encouraged to repeat the success in 2009. The theme will be Makeover 09, and Inga-Lil Guzik will come and teach from Ezekiel about God taking our heart of stone and giving us a heart of flesh and giving life to our dry bones. I’m sure many women across the Scandinavian region could do with some of that, so we’re hoping to see as many ladies show up as possible,” says Sofia Ortiz, who is one of the main organizers of the retreat.

However, in order to attend Makeover 09 is important that you sign up and pay the conference fee (550 SEK) no later than MARCH 15 (contrary to previous announcement that you could pay upon arrival). Here's how you secure your spot at the conference:

1 - Sign up by emailing allisonbroegger@gmail.com (please include your name and whether you expect to arrive by car, plane, or other public transportation).

2 - To cover the cost of food and lodging, please transfer 550 SEK to the Swedbank account number 914 060 637-8 (clearing number 8452-5). Questions about the payment can be emailed to sofiaortiz33@yahoo.com.
