Our conferences and leaders…
Finding Your Passion—Kathy Shoop
Circumstances in our lives shout for our attention. As long as we
have our eyes on our circumstances they will define or defeat our
passion. Find and keep your ―Passion‖ for God by trusting and
loving Him through everything that happens in your life.

time spent with God in His Presence? This session will give you
practical guidelines & tools to help keep that ―QUIET TIME‖.
This will be an opportunity for
you to RECHARGE !!!

God loves us and gives meaning to our lives. To prosper in HIS
purpose, He wants us to live our lives expectantly—stepping out in
faith and applying His truths.
