This post has taken me almost two weeks – I always have a hard time finding the words to express what the few days I get to spend at Winshape mean to me. This is the 4th year for the Pursuit 31 community of women to gather in Rome, Georgia and I’ve been unable to attend the past 2 years (you know…backpacking around the world and having a baby were pretty good excuses!). My dear friend Karen Stott started this movement 5 years ago and I’m just awe-struck by how God has chosen to use her to facilitate his plans for so many women around the world. What started as 10 of us at a dinner table in Las Vegas has turned into a community of women who support, encourage, pray together and has brought me some of my best friends. Last week when I was at the conference, we sat together and dined al-fresco under an array of twinkle lights and the sky…and you know what…that table was set for 200 women. 200 creative women gathered to learn more about Jesus, to learn more about their businesses and how to incorporate God’s plan for us in them. It’s inspiring, it’s life-changing, it’s restful, it’s emotional, it’s up-lifting, it’s exhausting…it’s what God needs it to be for you in that moment of your life. Thank you to the beautiful Pursuit staff and our speaker team who were incredible. Especially my best friend (whom I met 4 years ago at the very first Pursuit conference!!) Elizabeth Langford who gave an incredible talk about making God the CEO of your business….so so very proud of you Liz!
If you’re interested, this is the first year they’re offering a Spring conference and sign ups are right now!
