You’re invited to a special weekend of connection and spiritual growth at the Calvary Women’s Conference! We’re honored to welcome Jacqueline Schaffer Shaw as our speaker.
From the very beginning, God created women with a purpose. As image-bearers of the one true God, we were created to reflect His character and live out the unique purposes He prepared for each of us even before the foundation of the world.
Throughout our lives, God invites us into different seasons and calls us to wear many different hats. We may be daughters, wives, mothers, students, professionals — or several of these at once. Yet our identity and our purpose remain constant. Whatever role God has entrusted to us in each season, we are called to embrace it wholeheartedly, knowing that we ultimately serve Him.
“Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men” (Colossians 3:23). What a beautiful reminder that no season is insignificant, no role is without purpose, and no act of faithfulness is unseen by God. In every season, we have the opportunity to glorify Him and make a difference for His Kingdom.
Come be encouraged through personal testimony and in-depth Bible teaching as Jacqueline Schaffer Shaw shares how God has led her through many seasons and entrusted her with many different hats. Discover how you, too, can embrace God’s purposes and plans for your life and walk confidently in the calling He has given you, as you pursue Christ in every stage of the journey.
Cost: $50 per person, includes dinner on Friday and breakfast on Saturday
