Called to Love Retreat

​WHAT:
Called to Love is a retreat for adoptive and foster moms. The purpose of the retreat is to provide renewal, connection and encouragement in the unique journey of parenting an adopted or foster child. As a Christ-focused ministry, our desire is to bring imperfect mamas closer to a perfect God. Moms in any stage of the process are welcome, but the weekend will be especially beneficial as post-placement support.

WHERE:
The Oregon Garden Resort in Silverton, Oregon

WHEN:
Annually in the fall. The 2021 retreat will take place November 12-14. 

REGISTRATION:
Cost for Called to Love 2021 will be $180 (thanks to a generous donation for 2021).  Payment is due at the time of registration. Your registration will not be considered complete until the payment has been processed. (REGISTRATION DOES NOT INCLUDE YOUR HOTEL ACCOMMODATIONS.)
