    From Kathy

    “I can’t wait to spend time with you at the Among Friends conference. My hope is to give you a safe place to let down the walls, enjoy a good laugh and be yourself — and walk away with renewed courage to take on life’s trials. I yearn for all of us to leave knowing that God is not done writing our stories.”

    speakers3.png


    What is an Among Friends Conference?

    This thing called life – it’s hard. But when women get in a room together and start sharing stories, powerful things happen. Camaraderie. Honesty. Laughter. Courage.

    An Among Friends conference is a Friday night/Saturday morning gathering that gives women a break from the demands of their lives.  A time to gather with friends, and be reminded that God has not forgotten us. He is not done writing our stories.

    Hope to see you there!!!
