WOMEN OF FAITH CONFERENCE

 

“Infinite Grace”

Friday evening – Saturday, 

September 19—20

Pepsi Center, Denver

 

And God is able to make all grace abound to you, that always having all sufficiency in everything,

you may have an abundance for every good deed.”

II Corinthians 9:8

 

If you have never been to a “Women of Faith Conference,” your joy has not yet hit its fullest.  This Conference is one of the most exciting things around.  You will be entertained – laugh until tears roll down your cheeks; then stories are told that will touch your heart and there will be a different kind of tears.  The music and singing are fantastic—one can participate or just listen, taking it all in.

 

These women love to tell women about God and the impact He’s had on their lives.  As you listen, sometimes you know exactly what they are talking about because you have also been there, done that. There is also the fellowshipping with other women.  By the time one departs this Conference, spirits are soaring and each participant has a renewed feeling—ready to face the world head on.  LET THAT BE YOU.   LET THAT BE MANY OF US.

 

It’s amazing!  Register now for this great event. Joyce Teter has again reserved 25 tickets to this event. Information concerning carpools, hotels, and speakers will be available in the following months.
