Atlantic District Pastors' Wives Retreat

Dear Wives of Pastors,

We invite you to the 2024 Pastors’ Wives retreat. This year, the retreat is at the new headquarters of the Atlantic District in Hastings-on-Hudson, New York. We shall gather and meet in the beautiful new meeting rooms and be housed at the nearby Hampton Inn.

The retreat will include a delightful lunch at the Half Moon in Dobbs Ferry and a catered dinner. Our speakers will be Mrs. Carol Mittelstaedt and Mrs. Emmi Forbes who will lead us in learning helpful tools to understand ourselves and other people. There will also be devotions, an art project, and we shall celebrate the Holy Eucharist with Bishop Taylor.

Come relax, laugh, and share with other pastors’ wives from around the Atlantic District.

If paying for the retreat is a challenge, please communicate that to Mrs. Carol Mittelstaedt at carol.mittelstaedt@ad-lcms.org since there are scholarships available.

Registration cost covers the catered dinner and the lunch at Half Moon.
