We are pleased to announce "Deeper Connections" - a fantastic conference we have planned for our women on Friday, March 15 and Saturday, March 16.  The conference starts on Friday evening at 6:30pm with If My People Pray! Women in Prayer - a 30 minute session on the power of praying women.  This will be followed by a light supper at 7:00 p.m., after which we will move into the Friday evening session where Pastor Donnett Blake of the Northeastern Conference of Seventh-day Adventists will be our guest speaker.

On Saturday, Pastor Blake will preach for both services (9:15 a.m. and 11:45 a.m.).  We will provide lunch for our ladies after the 11:45 a.m. service.  Our afternoon program features two amazing sessions:  Guarding My Mind - Strategies for Women's Health by Dr. Jude Boyer Patrick and Going Beyond:  Moving through Pain, Walking in Purpose by SaMonna Watts.  We close out the conference with a women's consecration session by our Women's Ministries leader - Danielle Latouche.

We encourage you to invite the women in your life to attend!
