Women’s Getaway 2023 — Truth and Grace
June 2-4, 2023
Women’s Getaway Retreat is designed for women of all ages. Spending time at our spectacular resort facilities set on the beautiful Mary Lake just outside of Huntsville, Ontario. You will be renewed as you are taught from God’s Word. There are plenty of opportunities to unwind and connect with God and girlfriends. And you will be equipped to return home to your busy life. Join us for a great weekend retreat.
We have officially run out of space in our hotel-style rooms.
Don’t worry, we have a solution AND it will save money: Founders Hall is now open for our Women’s Getaway guests! At Founders Hall, we offer dorm-style rooms where you can either reserve a room for one or bunk with 3 other friends and chat late into night.
Room cost is $102 per night (price does not change based on the number of guests in each room). Each room has 4 beds. There is an extra cost added if linens are needed.
Online bookings not available for Founders Hall. Call the office at 705-789-0123 or email us at office@muskokabible.com with any questions.

Carol Kent
Read about Carol Kent
“What makes my heart sing?” asks Carol. “Speaking to groups looking for messages that include humor and hope that speak to today’s challenges by pointing to God’s Word.” She says, “I think women need to laugh because life is challenging, but I also think they want to go deeply into God’s Word and find out how to live in the middle of relationship struggles, difficult choices, and hidden fears. Women are longing for authenticity and practical strategies for living out their faith. I’ve spoken at large arena events for Women of Faith, Extraordinary Women, and Women of Joy. I’ve also spoken at medium sized venues and in small, intimate gatherings. It’s a joy to do women’s conferences and retreats for churches, and sometimes my husband Gene and I team-teach at worship services. I’m also available to speak at fundraising events for nonprofit organizations.”
As a former Bible Study Fellowship teaching leader, Carol loves to teach the Bible, and she generously weaves scripture, stories, and applications for life throughout her presentations. She is willing to offer theme and message titles to your group, or she can work with your team to customize a topic you have selected.
She is the founder and director of the Speak Up Conference, a ministry that equips speakers and writers to take the next step. With her husband Gene, she founded the nonprofit organization, Speak Up for Hope, which benefits inmates and their families. Carol is also the president of Speak Up Speaker Services, a Christian speakers’ bureau.

Women’s Getaway 2023 — Equipped
October 13-15, 2023
Sometimes as women we might feel depleted and in need of some encouragement, even a few moments to just catch our breath while we are ministered to through music. Our equipped weekend is designed to help women take that time. Friday night we start our evening with a concert of praise, Saturday morning and early afternoon is filled with breakout sessions, reflective of our theme for the weekend, sessions that will encourage us and challenge us. Saturday evening and Sunday morning our plenary teacher will open God’s word and help us dig into His word. Returning home equipped to live out your own faith vibrantly is our prayer.
