Wow ladies! The PWOC International Conference 2008 in Grapevine is now part of history and were we ever blessed!! What an awesome privilege it was to join with over a thousand other women from all over the United States, the Pacific and Europe at our Redeemer’s feet.
The teaching and worship ministries of Lisa Harper and Kathleen Carnali were uplifting and life-changing. I know the workshops I attended on marriage, parenting, and leadership development challenged me to better serve God in these areas, but also equipped me to do just that.
During our Central region bonding time I was proud to share that Sheppard brought 25 ladies to conference, including 4 chaplain’s wives as well as our supportive and brave Chaplain advisor. We also recognized our Ft. Sill sisters whom we desire to partner with as we grow in unity and love.
Finally, my heart was encouraged as I spent time connecting with our wonderful women from Sheppard and reconnecting with many special women in my life that I haven’t seen in awhile – my first grade teacher whom I met up with a few years ago through PWOC, a sweet Chaplain’s wife who I served with in Mothers of Preschoolers and a number of very special mentors who have touched my life and helped me be where I am today. A number of times I overheard someone say “This is just a little taste of what heaven must be like!”
God is good and Regional Conference 2009 is just a year away ladies so mark your calendars now for 5-8 Nov at the Windermere Conference Center in Lake of the Ozarks ,MO and be prepared for a little heaven on earth!
Blessings,
Cheryl
When I met Carol Castro, I knew exactly what project I wanted her to tackle next - a mosaic of the PWOC logo. Carol is a local artist who does amazing things with clay. Her work includes commissioned pieces for the local Christian radio station and "cake decorated" ceramics.
