WOMEN MADE THEIR DATE WITH DESTINY

Picture
On Friday, July 22 through Sunday, July 24, 2011, women represented the diverse tapestry of our world by gathering at the Sisters Sharing Gathering at the Westchester Marriott Hotel in Tarrytown, New York. The purpose of this gathering was to execute a convocation that developed wholistic strategies to effectively equip women to meet the challenges of their communities and the families who live within them; in order to foster renewed hope and potential by reclaiming each woman's life, family, community and our world. Designed to be a new paradigm of meeting the needs of our constituency, one (100) hundred women (with an overflow of forty-four) were afforded an opportunity to experience this date with destiny.   

Sisters Sharing attendees were provided an opportunity to rediscover and rededicate a life commitment to be a woman who empoweres other women and their families. Within the wholistic strategy of Women Organizing, Mobilizing and Building, Inc. (WOMB), the Sisters Sharing Gathering fostered life-changing agendas that prescribed hopeful soultions as women gathered to embrace the potential to manifest the global woman's network.  We invite you to register to attend Sisters Sharing 2012. Dare to be one (1) of the one hundred (100)! Contact the New York WOMB Circle Coordinators at NYCircle@wombinc.com or (718) 649-5410 for further information. God is up to somethin'. You ought to know!
