Our Mission Statement: Women United in Christ to Serve Others
Women’s Ministries Retreat
Billy Barker Hotel, Quesnel (250-992-5533)
April 24 – 26, 2026
Take a break from the everyday and join us for a weekend of connection, laughter, real conversations and time with God. God does not work the way we work…but He IS at work in this world and He wants you to partner with Him! Through stories of God’s intervention and love for people, you will be inspired to move forward in the “dirt” of life with God. You will desire to know Him better and to be part of His work.
Theme & Speaker:
In the Dirt with God is the theme for the weekend. Topics include: 1. Are you being pinched? (Pain and suffering); 2. Growing in darkness ( Don’t Judge); 3. Stake that or be bent (Encouragement); 4. The dormant seed ( My kids, family, friends); and 5. Are you ready for this? (Evangelism)
Karla Dubyna, the main speaker, is a wife, mother of seven, and an entrepreneur. Karla loves balancing family, business, and faith. She is always looking for opportunities to share God’s amazing love, hoping to encourage and inspire others to do the same.
