Where to even begin? I do believe this was our best Women's Weekend Experience yet at WABC! We started off the weekend with a bang with movie night. Saturday morning as the ladies started showing up (eagerly I night add) for our workshop I prayed that the women who gathered that day would leave feeling refreshed and renewed. Our theme for the weekend was on point! Women Basking In God's Presence!!!! Pamela Tanner ushered in the holy spirit during our praise and worship session. Thank you Pam for not just your sweet voice, but for your sweet spirit!
How do I even begin to thank all of our facilitators? Thank you Ms. Annette Brockett for starting us off just right. I knew your bubbly personality would be just what we needed to start our sessions off with a BANG! To Elizabeth...I love seeing the young women of God you have turned into! To our very own Caronne, your soft spoken and calm voice was just what was needed for that session! To my friend Lula, thank for stepping in on such short notice. You did an excellent job. To Mama Greene, what can I say...thank you for always being there when we need you. Your presence each year has been a blessing to the women of WABC in so many ways. To my cousin Chrystal.....thank your for sharing your testimony with the women, I believe that you sharing your story not only touched our women but caused a major shift in someones life. Love you girl! Of course I can't forget my daughter Nicki our media guru! Thanks Nic for all that you do for WABC, often at the expense of your own interest. I have to mention two special friends who sent props, and prizes for our weekend. Thank you Robbie Curlee and Nan Evans for being such sweet friends!
Sunday we closed out our program with Rev. Jospehine Cherry! My oh my! Rev. Cherry closed that thing out with her message of just being still!!!! I don't know about the rest of you ladies, but that one really hit close to home. So much so that I've spent the week...just being......STILL (said with a whisper)! To Mama Cat, thank you for heading the holy spirits call to visit. I feel blessed that you took time out of your very busy schedule to worship with the women of WABC! Of course we have to congratulate our Women of The Year....Calonia Fults. Thank you so much for all that you do for not just my family, but for the family of God that is WABC! God blessings to you and to your family who showed up and showed out! Enjoy your time of REST!!!!!
Of course none of this would have been possible without the support of our Pastor. Thank you honey for believing in me, and this ministry. Lastly, I have to thank the Women's Ministry Team that continues to surprise (and make me proud) me. You ladies took on the task this weekend with grace, flair and finesse. I could not do what I do, if you all did not do what you do. Love you ladies to life. To our participants I hope that you left feeling just a bit closer to our Father God, and that you will take what you learned this weekend and share it with someone else. See you all next year at our Weekend Experience 2013! Be sure to invite a friend.
