Come Early: Join Us For Coffee, Networking & Shopping

Welcome to our inaugural women's event!

This Conference/Expo is purposed to share God's greatest power source--love--to help women revive and thrive in their work lives and beyond. Whether you're a working mom, a young professional or a seasoned career woman, we invite you to join us for an opportunity to learn, love, laugh, lunch and shop.

This year's theme is Love3, which highlights the confluent relationship each woman shares with God, herself and others. It's based on the breadth, length, height and depth of God's love (Ephesians 3:18) and His Greatest Commandments to love Him with all of our hearts, minds and souls as well as to love our neighbors as ourselves (Matthew 22:37-39).

What's more, each expert presenter will offer you practical tips that will help you excel in building support networks, dressing for success, planning and goal setting, time management, defeating stress, getting promoted, sharing your faith and more.

What better place to be amid these current economic conditions. Come and be empowered!

See you there,
