Design for Life Conference

Last year, Heather and I, and her mother in law, Vicki and a friend attend this women's conference in Springfield, Missouri at James River Assembly of God Church.  We enjoyed it so much we decided to make it an annual event and we all invite friends.  My friends came all the way from Ventura, CA.


Of course before the conference began, we had to eat at Lambert's, where they throw rolls at you.  Their portions were very large.


The conference was amazing. Approximately 4,000 in attendance.

The speakers from this year were; Nancy Alcorn, Mercy Ministries, John and Helen Burns, also with Mercy Ministries, and Donna Crouch from Hillsong Ministries. Wonderful uplifting 
messages.


One of the speakers, Nancy Alcorn, was a missionary to Uganda.  She shared the need for panties and bras for the ladies there.  This stage is full of the panties and bras brought by attendees to shower the ladies of Uganda.


Loved this sign.  Need to remember to put it into practice.


This was our group.  From left to right, Jacki Gilmore, Heather Wilson, Charlene Henard, Kathy Warnke, Vicki Wilson, Jennifer Byrd, and Catherine Wilson.


 So large it has out grown the church and will be at JQH Arena at MSU next year and yes we've already signed up.  Anyone want to join us.
