Braving Widowhood Events

At Brave Twin, hosting events is one way we walk in our purpose to connected and support widows. Events include monthly get togethers and twice yearly retreats for widows.

Our first retreat was held in the fall of 2021. Eight ladies went to Galena, Illinois. Since then we’ve had two retreats per year (summer and fall) every year. We’ve had as many as 12 but average 8-10 ladies.

We started also planning monthly get togethers as a social group. We chose the tagline “Finding strength through faith and connection,” which is what we do.

Having this shared experience with widows is what creates an immediate bond.

  • Monthly Get Togethers

    Our monthly get togethers have included lunches and crafts, basket weaving, pottery, movie nights, dinners, bunco party, and winery classes on wine & chocolate.

  • Brave Twin Retreats

    We plan twice yearly retreats for women in our Brave Twin community.

    On our retreats we do have a meditation and sometimes go to faith-based places while on the trips.
