There are many new opportunities to grow in faith and connect this month at Weddington Church. Take time to pray and discern how God is guiding you to deepen your relationship with Him. Our hope is that you won't merely know about God, but come to truly know Him in a life-transforming way.

Fall Women's Retreat


REGISTER BY SEPTEMBER 24!

October 20–22, 2023

Dogwood on Lake Norman


Join us for the Women's 2023 Fall Retreat at Dogwood on Lake Norman. Guest speaker Elizabeth Poplin invites you to take a break and focus on where God is leading you to love and serve in this season of your life. As women, God has given us purposeful assignments, but it's easy to become exhausted and lose sight of our calling.


The retreat offers a chance to reset, refocus, and renew your commitment to your calling. You'll find quiet beauty and space to breathe as you reflect on the places God has called you. Surrounded by other women seeking the same reset and renewal, you'll be strengthened by time spent with Jesus and a fresh perspective on God's invitation to run with Him this season. Pack your bags and come away with a renewed perspective on your journey with Christ.
