Women's Retreat

Every year, UUCM holds a women's retreat. Its a time for the women in our community to warm our hearts and fortify our spirits through creativity, reflection and sharing. The theme for our 2023 retreat was "Reclaiming our Wholeness." Individually, wholeness invites us to embrace and honor all aspects of ourselves – our strengths, vulnerabilities, passions, and imperfections. Within our community, wholeness reminds us of the power of connection and inclusion. It recognizes that each of us brings our own perspectives, gifts, and experiences that enrich and help to shape our collective journey. 

Each of us arrived at UUCM from our own unique spiritual journey with our own wisdom and longings. In this year's retreat, we explored how in the blizzard of the world, we can stay connected to what sustains and guides us.  While we each may be our own journey, we joined together to mindfully pause, reflect and ponder what has heart and meaning and explored ways we can continually renew and restore our spirit. With curiosity, humor, compassion and gratitude, we delved into the beauty and wholeness we can continually uncover, discover and recover as individuals which, in turn, helps to build a beloved community that honors us all.
