WFS Annual Conference: June 10-12, 2016


WE SET THE DATE!  MARK YOUR CALENDARS!

COME EARLY, Stay at the Dorm: Thursday, June 9th!

Campus Map & Directions:


REGISTRATION - The flyer isn't ready - however, we want you to plan ahead!  We do hope you can join us next June for a great weekend getaway with 4C women!  An added bonus is that you can arrive a day early - Thursday - and spend some quality time with your WFS sisters at the dormitory.  The registration price includes staying in the dormitory.... the price will NOT be lowered if you choose to stay OFF CAMPUS.  Believe me, you will have a lot more fun staying in the dorm with all of your new friends!

ATTENDANCE - All women in recovery from alcohol and drug abuse are welcome to join us to celebrate a New Life.  WFS is an abstinence-based program and requires that each woman be clean and sober during the event.  The longer you are sober, the more potential there is to fully appreciate and learn from all that you can experience at the conference.  You have the opportunity to participate in something that can create positive changes in your life... so come join us for an enjoyable retreat in the company of 4C women!

***WFS AUCTION***  Don't forget about WFS's Annual Fundraiser!  It will be held on Saturday of the conference and we need your support... handmade items, crafts, quilts, artwork, jewelry, baskets of goodies... it all adds up to lots of exciting bids and friendly competition to raise much needed funds for our organization.  If you are bringing auction items with you to conference, we will have a pre-auction set up table on Friday to sort through all the goodies... SUGGESTION: ONE-OF-A-KIND ITEMS garner more bids than multiples of the same item.  That being said, we welcome 'multiples' too!  You have TIME TO CREATE SOMETHING AWESOME FOR THE AUCTION!!  This year's auction raised a total of $14,536!!!!  There were 331 items donated - from all across the globe!  Why not join in and be part of this fun and worthy fundraiser?!  To give you some inspiration - here is the link to pictures from the recent conference in June:

***REGISTRATION DISCOUNT***  Every year we provide a $20 discount for the early birds who register by April 1st.  The registration for the WHOLE weekend with a double room is only $270 (includes 2 nights at the dormitory, 5 meals, and all workshops on Saturday & Sunday).  After April 1st, the regular cost of $290 for a double room will apply.

***START SAVING NOW***  I did some calculations and if you stash away ONLY $7 EACH WEEK - starting NOW - you'll have enough saved to pay for the early bird registration fee!  And if that doesn't inspire you...here are a few words from attendees: "I wanted to let you know how much the Conference moved me this time around.  I believe this one was the most powerful one for me.  I already started on my auction items and my saving for the Conference fees and the Auction.  So many new women just warmed my heart.  I have such a passion for Women for Sobriety!"  "So happy I came.  I now feel part of something so much bigger than myself.  I will draw strength and connection from that.  The dormitory lobbies felt like a slumber part.  Really enjoyed coming out of my usual shell.  Thank you!" 
IMPORTANT - IF YOU HAVE ANY ....ANY!... QUESTIONS - CALL OR EMAIL ME DIRECTLY AT THE OFFICE...NOT THE ONLINE FORUM.  We appreciate your support of WFS!  I am so looking forward to seeing you next year!

Warm regards,
Becky Fenner, WFS Director

Thank you soo much for supporting this ministry, this has been my dream since I started this page over 2 years ago to start this charity for people who need treatment for up to a year and cannot afford it. You have no idea how many messages I get with regard to people needing to find treatment. This is a need that is VERY close to my heart.  Please message me on the page if you have any questions. Peace and many blessings :)

July 27 CHP 16 v 4 TWELVE STEPPING WITH STRENGTH FROM  THE PSALMS



Troubles multiply for those who chase after other gods. I will not take part in their sacrifices of blood or even speak the names of their gods .(GODS BIG BOOK)


STEP 3 Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of God !


There is only one TRUE God . He has book for you to read ! The verse is true whether you like it or not . If you ignore the one who created you then your gonna have trouble the entire time your here and when you die He is gonna want to know why you followed other higher powers and ignored the only ONE who created and loved you . That's right you will meet Him one day !



Jonah 2:8, Those who cling to worthless idols turn away from God’s love for them.(GODS BIG BOOK) By Joseph Dickerson
