Women’s Conferences Galore!

Praise God that the women in the Church of God love to attend women’s conferences! These assemblies offer wonderful opportunities for women to assemble. They worship, praise, teach, fellowship, and show love for one another.

I am pleased to note that they do all of this without the need of some male to “oversee” them. The holy spirit guides them into mature actions without the need of a man to “supervise” their efforts. Believe it or not, there are some who feel that women can’t assemble for a conference like this without the guidance of men!

Let’s look at three specific women’s conferences in three different parts of the country.

But first, I would like to encourage you to check out our brand new article entitled, “What is the Role of Women In the Church?” You may be surprised by the answers that we find from the Bible. If this article on women is not on our website by the time you read this blog, please be patient. It should be posted within a few days.

Back to our women’s conferences.

Hot Springs, Arkansas. A women’s conference will be held in Hot Springs from May 16 thru May 18 (Friday thru Sunday). The theme will be “God’s Greatest Gift” (I Corinthians 13:13).

The setting will be the beautiful Ouchita Mountains which should be lush and green that time of year.

Big Sandy, Texas. About 100 women met together here in Big Sandy several weeks ago. The women who organized this conference have been involved in Women’s Conferences since 1999! The theme of their 2008 conference was “A Christian Woman’s Journey: Growing Along the Way.” Their next conference will be held March 13 - 15, 2009. The theme will be “Preparing the Bride of Christ.”

Birmingham (Fultondale), Alabama. Many women will be congregating in the Fultondale Fairfield Inn for the July 18 – 20 women’s conference. They haven’t announced the theme yet. You may contact Peggy Wooten at RayWooten@aol.com. Or call 888/985-9066.

We are grateful to all these women for the wonderful example they set when it comes to Christian fellowship! Too often, the world thinks that being obedient to God makes for a dull and boring life. Not so! Being a follower of Christ brings us so much happiness and joy! I would like to encourage all women who seek the Lord to attend one or some or all of these conferences. No matter what your age, these conferences will benefit you. They are run by sincere, dedicated women. I have known Rosy Hally and Peg Wooten for years. These sisters in Christ are working hard to serve you in this great ministry.
