One of America’s most unique Christian women’s events,
“Extraordinary Women,” is on course to launch the fall 2009 series of their much-anticipated two day conferences. Tickets are now on sale online at
http://www.ewomen.net/ for eight power-packed weekends, beginning in late August and running through November. This year’s event theme is “Free To Be Real!”
Earning the description as
“America’s Most Explosive Women’s Movement” through consistently presenting powerful ministry and music filled events, the heart of the ministry vision in 2009 remains totally centered on the core values of drawing women closer to the heart of God. Notes event founder and President, Julie Clinton: “We’re particularly excited about this year’s theme of ‘Free To Be Real.’
As Julie Clinton writes in her book,
Living God’s Dream For You, “God’s dream for you includes His desire for you to be free. He wants you to be free from your past sins and hurts. He wants you to be free from it all. Nothing you have ever done and nothing you will ever do will disqualify you from being loved by God.” In speaking of this year’s conferences, she adds: “Extraordinary Women 2009 will help you discover how to get real with who you are in Christ so you can live the extraordinary, authentic life God dreams for you!”
The face of
“E Women” is a compelling one. It is one of mothers, daughters, friends, sisters, co-workers, complete strangers, and literally women of every age and ethnicity joined into the instant moment of unity as one voice praising God and coming together to worship and learn on a weekend of sisterhood. Opportunities for ministry are everywhere, There are expansive spreads of resource rich tables to be browsed, quiet moments of break-out prayers to be shared, meaningful girl talk over lunch to be savored, energized music and speakers to be enjoyed, and hushed moments of community in the event when God does the miraculous. From doors opening at 6:00 P.M. on Friday evening to the close of the conference late Saturday afternoon, new friendships have been forged, relationships and marriages strengthened, lives changed, and never-to-be-forgotten moments of laughter, fun, and meaningful tears shared together.
“Extraordinary Women” founder Julie Clinton further noted: “Everything we do is designed to help women grow closer to the heart of God and those they love dearest. Our mission is to host events and provide resources that equip women to handle life’s difficulties while enriching their hearts, encouraging their souls, and expanding their ministries.”
The 2009 “Extraordinary Women” series has assembled perhaps the strongest line-up yet of nationally known Christian speakers, best selling authors, humorists, and music artists.
Scheduled speakers include:
Stormie Omartian, Karen Kingsbury, Angela Thomas, Nancy DeMoss, Michelle McKinney Hammond, Thelma Wells, and Candace Cameron Bure.
Musical guests include
: Natalie Grant, Mandisa, Matthew West, Kathy Trocolli, NewSong, Charles Billingsley, and Michael O’Brien.’’
Note at press time Amy Grant has been added in live concert at the Roanoke, Virginia event on September 25th-26th.
Each Friday-Saturday two day event will be unique in this year’s series with a blend of music and speakers tailored to each weekend. From opening of each weekend presentation to close—from praise and worship, to anointed teaching moments, to the spontaneous fun that outbreaks at each “E Women” event --literally no two conferences are alike.
Best selling author and speaker, Angela Thomas, sums up the heart of “Extraordinary Women” beautifully: “When ordinary women come into the presence God, extraordinary things begin to happen. Hearts begin to heal. The weary are made strong. The hope of Christ is renewed in our lives. Come to this amazing weekend and let the powerful love of God begin to transform your ordinary into the extraordinary for His glory!”
