2026 WFBC Ladies’ Retreat

“Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we can ask or think.” Ephesians 3:20

Join us April 17 and 18 as we explore Ephesians 3 and the abundance we have in God.

Speaker Highlight

Karen Hightower was saved at the age of 8 during a revival meeting at her childhood church in Illinois. She surrendered her life to the Lord as a teenager. God brought Hal Hightower into her life to be her life-long mate, and they have been married for over 45 years.

God has given Karen and Hal a wonderful marriage and ministry over the years. Hal pastored The Baptist Church of Hadley in Hadley, MI and then Tabernacle Baptist Church in Lebanon, MO for 15 years. God called them into full-time evangelism, and they traveled all over America for 12 years. For the past 10 years they have been at Rochester Hills Baptist Church in the northern Detroit area.

About

The WFBC was formed in 1950 as the Conservative Baptist Association of Wisconsin and became the Wisconsin Fellowship of Baptist Churches in 1969. Although various areas of the state originally held one-day ladies’ rallies, the State Women’s Fellowship, for the purpose of annual spring retreats, was not organized until 1956. The first WFBC Ladies’ Retreat was held the following spring of 1957. The purpose of the WFBC Ladies’ Retreat is to provide ladies with a special time set aside to focus on the following opportunities:

-Scriptural Instruction
-Spiritual Refreshment & Revitalization
-Sweet Christian Fellowship
