Summary

The weather did not deter those who had scheduled to attend.

The discussion revolved around women leading in the Workplace and in the Church. Issues that women face in each of those settings as well as in the home.

Diane and Terri also discussed how they are developing a Ministry to Women at CCV and had 100 women attend their most recent event.

The response to the discussion and the feedback from the men was positive.

This is the third year that Diane and Terri have spoken to the men at this event and the response is always positive and thought provoking.

The speakers were inspired as they were introduced to the theme ‘We will Rock You’ by Queen.

We will be booking them for another event in 2009.
