"Ruach" is the first-ever women's retreat envisioned by Elaine Conger and assisted by Marge Doyle and Sueson Vess. The retreat will take place in Gatlinburg, TN, at the Steiner-Bell Lodge on the campus of Wafloy Mountain Village, a Christian retreat facility adjacent to The Great Smoky Mountain National Park. We aim to create a safe and relaxing space where we can celebrate God's presence and listen to the divine within us as we engage in various spiritual disciplines. It will be a feast for the soul; you will be fed in body and spirit and come away feeling renewed and reinvigorated!
This Thursday through Sunday event (March 5-8, 2026) is $525 (meals included) for double occupancy; the single rate is $725. Please include your roommate's name in the comments section when you register or state that you prefer a single room.
