Praising Him!




Thank you for praying for our conference! These are pictures of the mugs that each woman received after the Sat. morning session. It was really fun to surprise and spoil them with lots of great giveaways but this one was one of my favorites. Sat. morning we had a guest speaker/potter from The Potter's Heart ministry. She had the whole room in tears as she poured out her story and demonstrated God's love for us through Potter/Clay verses while throwing a pot! I commissioned her to make a mug for each woman to take home and she agreed! What a labor of love!

I don’t know how to begin to describe all the work He did. I’m so humbled He allowed me to be a part of it. Over 200 women were there including staff. One of the speakers was my roommate (and good friend :)) and I know she personally talked with 20 – 30 women who came to confess and seek healing from past sins, addictions etc. and/or sexual abuse. HUGE strides were taken and the women are just beginning the healing work. Praise God for all He did and will continue to do!!! It was truly amazing to watch God at work! Thank you for your prayers – I needed them as well as everyone else involved – esp. with the logistics of adding an unexpected day due to weather.

I came home to tell hubby I have a new appreciation for all he does when directing a conference – and he in turn related a new respect for life with Thing 3 (who developed the art of climbing out of his pack and play while I was gone).

Please continue to pray for all the women involved and that the work won’t stop there but that they will share all they learned and spread God’s message of healing and redemption to many lives around them.
