Our ladies at the registration tables were such a blessing
We had 221 ladies register for this year's retreat. Despite the icy weather, 104 still showed up! God was good to us & kept the roads in Mineral Wells dry & safe.
We made sure that everyone received their 8 hugs for the day.
Delores was on our prayer team & Vivian helped with the photography
Heather played the keyboard to accompany us while we sang a few Hymns.

As usual, we did something silly. These are our new "travelin' shoes"! Are you going to Heaven with us?
We hope you are.

"This year was such a blessing to me. My part was so easy because you guys led us to praise and prepare our hearts so completely, that God was all over that place ready, willing, and able to bless us all. AMEN!? What a blessing! Thank you for blessing me so much with your sweet ministry! I’m still on my spiritual high from this weekend..... God is good! Love and thanks for all the blessings you were responsible for this weekend that fell on me and the other (100+) people there!"
"I so enjoyed being a part of that day. What a blessing! Thank you all so much for working & praying so hard to bless us all. Your music is beautiful, & I worship every time I get to hear you. Phyllis, you did a great job! I wrote down a lot of what you said in the back of my Bible, & I reserve that space for really great inspirational messages. Thank you all for the priviledge of ministering beside you. I continue to pray for you & your ministries."
Love to my sweet friends

"Once again you did an awesome Ladies retreat. I am so thankful to be able to attend, can't wait for your next one. The ladies from Walnut Creek really enjoyed the retreat also. They were glad we had mentioned your retreat. God's blessing to all of you."
Lydia Roberts, Springtown, TX
"It was my pleasure to be a small part of the wonderful work you ladies do! Praying for you was easy! God has blessed you all with so much talent and such wonderful spiritual gifts! You all deserve gifts for all your time and effort you devote to the Lord’s work! It was gift enough that you allowed me to be a part and for allowing volunteers into the conference free. Thank you for all you do!"
Linda Johnson, Prayer Committee Volunteer for 2007 "From Prayer to Praise" Retreat
Looking forward to seeing you next year!
