From the Editor's desk


Greetings and welcome to November’s conXion.

Each month I wonder what will land on my desk for conXion and I am never disappointed. November’s conXion is full again with stories from women who love to share from their heart, so enjoy dear readers.

Last weekend was our Girls’ Getaway Camp held at Coolum. What a weekend! It was full on, Carol Smith our guest speaker shared  “If I’m not reading the Bible, why not?” Carol reminded us that it is the best gift given to us. Through God’s Word we connect with Jesus, how good is that.

There were 86 ladies present throughout Saturday, we had Destiny Rescue come and share their work, saving young girls (children) from prostitution.
Bel Thomson, our guest artist was a delight, she bravely brought her husband of only a few weeks to meet us, though I think really it was Phil who was the brave one. They shared their story of how they met. How they held onto God’s promise for their lives, what joy it was to hear and dear readers you will have to wait till next year to hear their story. 

Check out the group photo with everyone dressed up in their Country & Western outfits for Saturday nights concert below.



 Last weekend proved to the Committee that Camps are not something of the past. Camps offer to those, especially from our smaller churches an opportunity to gather with like minded women. We arrive on Friday evening and leave on the Sunday catching up with old friends and making new ones.



We held our de-brief on Friday and have some great plans for next year already. The Theme is ‘All You Need is Love’ and our guest speaker will be Katie Lush from Highfields Church of Christ.

The ladies Retreat at Camp Koojarewon, Highfields will be held on the weekend 16— 18 March. Don’t miss out this will also be an awesome weekend. This is our tree-scape, Koojarewon is set among the gum trees a stunning setting check the ad below.  

I also encourage you all to consider being part of Celebrate 2012 it is time for us to gather and celebrate what God has done and is doing within our movement. Come and hear Rich Robinson at Centrifuge on the Friday, hear what is happening in Conference at our AGM and finally share with others at the CEO Award Dinner.
It will be a great time of encouragement for us all, so please consider.

In His love
Andi
