"The Janice" Nebraska Bible-Reading Retreat, July 22–24, 2025

This July 22, we set out on an adventure not knowing where we are going; because, truly, who knows where Nebraska is?!

The Basics:

We’ll meet together off the grid and in a Residence Inn in Omaha, Nebraska to journey along with Paul, who also did not know where he was going! You’ll enjoy the fellowship of other women and a time of quiet away from the noise of the world. No stress, no cooking, no obligations, just time with the Lord and one another.

The Number:

Whoever can get there!

****Please comment below if you’re coming and RSVP at the link below.****

We’ll read in small groups of four or five people per group and switch up groups throughout the day reading in the little living rooms of our Residence Inn condos.

The Cost:

Enough to offset the basic costs of food and some materials. If cost is an issue, we will provide scholarships. Plan for about $150, give or take. I’ll send a link later.

Bottom line: This is not a revenue-generating event, but as always, I want to steward resources well.

Next Steps:

• RSVP.

• Email Mary Ann at Maryann@pamgillaspie.com or me with any questions and with any food allergies, etc.
