I am so eager to hear/read about the way God spoke to women at She Speaks this year. I know not all of you were at She Speaks, but if you were will you share your story with us?
What was the highlight of your weekend? How did God show up in your life? What will you carry with you this week and in the coming months as you hold on to that for which He grabbed hold of your heart this past weekend? If you have a blog where you have shared your story, please list the link in your comments.
I will share how He spoke to me and some of my highlights soon. I still need to finish my end-of-chapter questions for my book, and they are due Monday so I need to do those first. Can’t wait to hear from you!

The moment I received my confirmation and registration information, the insecurities began to creep in. I knew without a doubt He was sending me, but I didn't know exactly why. He still hasn't revealed the details, but I am trusting Him in the days of small things.
After one of the classes I attended, I was emotionally in pieces and overwhelmed which prompted a visit to the prayer room. I wrote about my experience on my blog, Beyond Sunday Morning at http://beyondsundaymorning-amy.blogspot.com/2010/08/right-where-im-supposed-to-be.html
He is always right on time with His words and confirmations and I will never forget my experience at She Speaks.

I know it's a bit premature, but have the dates for 2011 been set? I would love to attend the next one!
I am a friend of Stephanie Garneau's (Oxford, Mississippi) and was NOT at She Speaks. But I can't tell you how much HER stories of how God worked at that conference really spoke to ME, strengthening MY journey as well.
So, I can't imagine the hundreds of people like me, who were so blessed by your conference without even being there!
Keep up the good work!
Renee, I was so thankful that Kirsten introduced you to me at the conference. It was wonderful to meet you and Esther!! God did so many miracles in my life at the conference this year. I thought I was attending to pitch my bible study curriculum and polish my speaking, but God had other plans. He revealed stony places I didn't even know existed and provided a healing balm through the many Jesus girls that touched my life. He set me free. He also confirmed His calling on my life through the encouraging words of the women in my speaker eval group and requested proposals at publisher appointments. On the last morning of worship, God told me to get on my face before Him. I was kinda embarassed but obeyed! He told me that He wanted me to share what He had done at She Speaks with my entire congregation (~1000 people) and corporately repent of the bitterness I had long been struggling with. I felt like I might vomit, but when I went to lay down my prayer at the cross, the promise I picked up was John 14:15-16 "If you love me you will obey my commands. And I will send the Holy Spirit to help you." After hearing all God had done, my pastor gave me time to share this past Sunday morning. And you know who God had ordained to be in the audience– my unsaved Catholic parents who were in town from Louisiana (7 hours away)!! I ended my time of sharing by asking if the Jesus I was speaking about was the Jesus they knew. I know my parents were stirred in a mighty way! I am chronicling the many miracles God did at the conference on my blog at http://www.thegemsministry.blogspot.com. I hope you all will join me and meet some of my new She Speaks girlfriends along the way. If any of you would like to be guest bloggers and share your stories about the confernce let me know at [email protected]. Blessings to you all!
