Details are here!

Our Speaker this year is Brigette VanHuisstede.  Please click on the bio tab for her personal information.

Our theme is based on  2 Timothy 1:7 "For the Spirit God gave us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love and self-discipline."  You are POWERFUL.  This theme focuses on how powerful women can be in the light of God's word.  Using the acronym P.O.W.E.R.F.U.L as such:  Prayer, Others, Word of God, Equipped, Respond, Friends, Unique, and Loved.  

The weekend will be Broken down in this way……

Brigette will prepare 2 speeches (Friday night and Saturday morning) + powerpoint presentation + discussion questions/prayer points + a short exercise to get to know each other/pray for each other.

Friday night: She will focus on the context/meaning of 2 Timothy 1:7 in a devotional.

Saturday morning: She will speak on the theme of You Are POWERFUL! (with the acronym points as written above).

After the speech on Friday night there will be free time and a chance to browse at tables we hope to have set up again with diff. items for sale.  If you would like to set up a table please contact Sylvia VandenHaak at Adrian_vandenhaak@hotmail.com.

For part of Saturday afternoon we will have some free time to browse the items at the tables again or to take a leisurely walk outside to take in the beautiful scenery camp Caroline has to offer. After free time we have a wooden sign craft for everyone to participate in that is being run by Becky Geusebroek…. she runs a company called Cocoa and Ginger (check them out on f/b 😊).

All in all it promises to be a time of learning, growing in faith, seeing old friends and making new ones, and enjoy some relaxation time

Please also look under the what to pack and more tab for more information about the weekend.

Hope to see you there! 😊
