Women's Events

Speaker Series

We are excited to announce that we'll be providing a Women's Speaker Series once a month on Saturday mornings from January to May!  Many women aren't available during the weekdays and we wanted to be able to provide an opportunity for good teaching and connection for all women at CAC and beyond.
 
All of us desire to become the women God has created us & is calling us to be - the kind of woman described in Proverbs 31.  Each series will focus on a different aspect of the Proverbs 31 woman.  The five sessions from January to May will encourage us to watch our words as we're exhorted to in Proverbs 31:26 - "She speaks with wisdom, and faithful instruction is on her tongue."
 
Here are the dates & topics scheduled.  Mark your calendars now & plan to invite a friend, relative, co-worker, school mom or neighbour!

Jan. 26 - Taming the Tongue: How important are our words? - Nan Huth
Feb. 16 - Gossip Girls: Words that Wound - Jan Hart
Mar. 09 - The War of Words: Moving to a biblical understanding of conflict - Anne Morelli
Apr. 13 -  Fighting that's Fruitful: Engaging in transformative conflict - Anne Morelli
