Save the date and make plans to join us Saturday, March 2nd, via Zoom from 9 am – 1:30 pm. for the Texas Conference United Women in Faith Spring Event.
Our theme this year is Get Together, and we are lucky to have Rev. Janet Wolf bring our keynote message.
Following the conference news items and Rev. Wolf’s message, we will hold three workshops in separate breakout rooms.
- Get together to serve – Wesley Community Center will share their programs and how ladies can volunteer.
- Get together to worship – Rev. Neomi Fletcher will lead
- Get together to advocate – Texas Impact will share ways to engage our communities this election season.
Each workshop will be repeated once, so you can choose to attend TWO of these workshops. Each session will be 45 minutes long with a 15 minute break in between.
