Highlights of CWF Retreat

About 180 women in Georgia took a journey on the "The Road Ahead" seeking answers about the choices that God desires each of us to make in our lives.  Patti Case, Editor of The Disciple magazine, took us on a journey of growth, nurture, and support.

In addition to being blessed through song, prayer, the messages, and workshops, CWF was also blessed through giving.  The woman-to-woman project and Aid to Children of Imprisoned Mothers (AIM) will share the Sunday offering in the amount of $1,627.  The Blessing Box dedication which is sent to BMF amounted to $9220.

The women were also blessed through the offering of 12 workshops that featured 12 dynamic women.  They delved into the lives of biblical women, investigating the crossroads in their lives and the resulting decisions they made.  Surely women went away not only having experienced the very presence of God but also gaining clarity on God's will for their lives.
