IN HIS PRESENCE CONFERENCE 2012

“How happy are those who fear the Lord, all who follow His ways!
You will enjoy the fruit of your labor.  How happy you will be!
How rich your life!” Psalm 128:1-2  NLT

As host and coordinator of the “In His Presence” conference 2012, I could not be more pleased with the event!  God showered us with His glorious presence, changed lives and continues to move in the lives of everyone who attended!  To God be glory!

As I viewed the video tapes of the event, I personally got to see and enjoy my efforts and labor of love.  I wept as I saw everyone participating, so many beautiful women and men!  Volunteers were serving but all were enjoying the wonderful presence of the Lord. 

I saw many tears, heard the beautiful release of laughter and saw the glory of God blanketing the day with His faithfulness, goodness, mercy and love!  Thanks be to God!

Every volunteer served with a cheerful heart, every speaker presented a powerful word along with amazing ministry to the attendees, and every singer flowed in the presence of God.  Each attendee heard the call to worship and answered the call with enthusiasm.  And that level of thankfulness and enthusiasm continues in the hearts of the attendees to this day!

I want to personally say ‘thanks’ to all who made this event such a special day for Pearls of Shalom Ministries and me.  I want to thank my Lord for all His provisions and meeting my needs and granting my special requests regarding this event. 

Surely, “You will show me the way of life, granting me the joy of your presence and the pleasures of living with you forever.” Ps. 16:11 NLT

IN HIS PRESENCE CONFERENCE…I KNOW that God danced on Saturday! ☺ We opened our hearts to HIM in worship; and the Lord opened up heaven. What a phenomenal day with a group of remarkable women from all around the Dallas/Ft. Worth area.

Thank you Theresa Westbrook for your vision and leadership. I’m so very thankful that the Lord placed us together in friendship and ministry. He knew I needed you!

A host of volunteers made it come together seamlessly- to each one of you, THANK YOU!!! It just couldn’t be done without you. Thank you Hope of Glory Church! You NOT ONLY opened your doors to host the conference, you provided an amazing staff to attend our every need.

Narda Goodson…you “all nations” girlfriend, YOU ROCK!!! What a unique ministry God has given you.

La’Netia Taylor...what a privilege to meet you. You have a beautiful spirit and an incredible ministry.

Sis (Sheila Penick)...thank you for the beautifully signed song. So happy and thankful God has allowed us to minister together.

Thank you to each and every one who attended. Your desire for His Presence was truly evident.

Above all, thank you Jesus. We are forever indebted to you. YOU are the air breath we breathe. You showered us with your love and we were renewed, restored and healed mind, body and spirit.

I would like to take this opportunity to say just how much I have enjoyed being a part of the In His Presence Conference. It was an honor to be in the midst of great women of God, who not only were thirsty and longed for God's Presence, but precious women who brought their alabaster boxes of worship with them.

I experienced alabaster boxes breaking before His Majesty, and one by one, as its sweet aroma of love and adoration inundated the air, the atmosphere became charged with His Power as His Grace fell upon us in the beauty of holiness.

Oh, how words fail to describe the joy I feel in my heart. It is all about Jesus and an occurrence that can only be experienced In His Presence.
