Our annual retreat takes us on a pilgrimage from Ann Arbor to the beautiful Weber Center in Adrian, Michigan.  Beginning Friday evening and lasting through Saturday afternoon, your fellow companions on this journey are women of all ages from First Pres.  Get away from the worries and cares of life to settle in for 24-hours of discovery - learning about yourself, where God is at work in your life, the journey of your own faith, and how we go forward in faith together!
