EXHALE
Practicing Peace. Embracing Rest.
LHUMC Women's Retreat 2026
November 6-8 • Prothro Center at Lake Texoma
"Come to me, all you who are weary and are carrying heavy burdens, and I will give you rest."
Matthew 11:28-30
Life moves fast. Our calendars stay full, our minds rarely slow down, and true rest can feel just out of reach.
Join the women of Lake Highlands United Methodist Church for Exhale, our annual Women's Retreat designed to help you press pause and experience God's peace. Together we'll worship, learn, laugh, share meals, enjoy quiet moments by the lake, and practice rhythms of peace that we can carry into everyday life.
Overnight registration is now closed, but you can still join us for the Saturday Day Retreat! Spend the day worshiping, learning, connecting with other women, and practicing rhythms of rest.
Register and submit your payment by Wednesday, October 21, to reserve your place
