On the weekend before Thanksgiving, several young ladies from St. John's
attended the WOW Retreat for senior high women held at NET Ministries in West St. Paul.  Standing for Women of Worth, the retreat was the first of its kind and examined the theme, "His Love endures forever!" (Psalm 136) 
The weekend included fun, small group discussions, talks, prayer, ice cream, and even a "chick flick!" Here's what two participants had to say about the experience:
