Greetings,
​
To the esteemed convention delegates, warm greetings to each of you in the spirit of faith, community and empowerment. It is with great pleasure and excitement that we announce the theme for our upcoming convention for 2023-2024, "Empowering Voices: Fostering An Environment That Empowers Women To Use Their Voices And Influence."
​
This theme, inspired by the thematic scriptures Judges 4-5, 1 Samuel 1-2, and John 4, resonates deeply with our mission to uplift and empower the women of our convention, community, churches, and beyond. These passages from the Word remind us of the remarkable women who used their voices to make a profound impact in their communities and the world. They serve as powerful examples of the strength, resilience, and unwavering faith that women possess.
The story of Deborah and Jael in Judges 4-5 teaches us about leadership, courage, and the importance of raising our voices for justice. In 1 Samuel 1-2, we witness the story of Hannah, who raised her voice in fervent and was granted the gift of motherhood, demonstrating the power of faith and perseverance. Finally, in John 4, we find the inspiring account of the Samaritan woman at the well, who boldly engaged in conversation with Jesus, resulting in a transformative encounter, and raised her voice in proclaiming “Come See A Man!”
As we prepare for upcoming events of this convention our primary focus, will be to lift these scriptures into meaningful discussions, workshops, and activities that will help us discover the strength within ourselves and each other. Together, we will learn how to foster an environment that empowers women to use their voices and influence for positive change, both within our faith community and around the world.
​
We are truly excited about the empowering and enriching experience that awaits us during our annual meetings of this convention. Your presence and participation are invaluable, and we look forward to hearing your voices, sharing your stories, and growing together in faith.
