Women's Conference, Jan 5-6 2007


About 140 women gathered at Malenovice for our third annual Women's Conference. This year's theme, as mentioned below, was beauty, inside and out. One of the most beautiful things for me is seeing God at work...one young mother told that she hadn't wanted to go to the conference at all and even picked seminars that she thought would be the least applicable to her. Thankfully, she wasn't able to avoid the Holy Spirit, and said that after a several year break, she was going to go back to her local church.


Tamara and her band from Cesky Tesin led us in worship, and they rocked the casbah. Tamara (far right) as well as being an amazing Czech teacher, also sings in the jazzy folk band Alesanka. One of my favorite things about these conferences is women of all ages and denimonations together for a common purpose: growing closer to the Lord.


The team! From the left: Kaleen, me, Radka, Katka, Katka, Sharon, Agnes, Alca, Lucka, Brenda, Judy and Denise. Having the 5 women from Christ Community Church (Elgin, IL) was encouraging and fun. Judy was the main speaker and the other 4 ladies all led seminars. This year we had 10 seminars, the other 6 were led by Czech women from around the country.

Radka and Agnes then went on to lead the second Women's Ministry training weekend, Setkani, January 26. Please keep praying for women's ministry in the Czech Republic.
