Wellspring Women’s Ministry Blog and Online Community

Have we mentioned lately that the Wellspring Conference is coming up? I can’t remember if we have said anything about it yet. HA! Don’t worry, we’ll try not to clog the blog up with much more conference details, since we know there might be some of you reading this who are unable to attend and are therefore bored silly with post after post about this conference! In the meantime, have fun reading about one exciting new thing for this year’s conference! Here’s Marion to tell you about it…

We are so excited to introduce a new aspect of the Wellspring Women’s Conference.  We are going to have a social room that we have dubbed “The Nest” that will allow us to have a central gathering place during our free time.  This will allow for different groups to mingle and will give us “night owls” a spot to converse without waking the “early birds”!  We will use the room that we have used for our meetings in the past (we have a new room for that now), so we have lots of space!  We will have tables set up around the room for various activities.  Some ideas we currently have are:


1.  A craft table.  Bring your scrap booking, card making, extra crafty stuff and enjoy setting up and having time to work on your projects that have been sitting on the back burner.

2.  A Card Table.  We will do as many of these as needed depending on what games we have going.

3.  A Board Game Table.

4.  A Manicure Table.

5.  A Color Consultation Table run by Sherry Cox



So…here is what we need from you!!!!


1.  We need other really fun and cool ideas

2.  If you have a service you are good at (massage, pedicures, manicures, etc) then it would be great if you want to share that talent with others (don’t worry we won’t sign you up for the whole time).

3.  CARDS AND BOARD GAMES

4.  Any craft or scrap booking stuff you would like to bring

5.  Cool music

6.  Cameras to capture the fun


Please email Heather Cotten (hmcottenatgmaildotcom) with any ideas or offers of services, games, etc.  

We are really looking forward to this aspect of the retreat.  It will be a great place to further develop relationships with the ladies you come with and the ladies you don’t see often.

A word about food in ‘The Nest’: The rules at Ridgecrest do not allow us to provide group snacks unless we purchase them from their catering department. To keep the costs of the conference down our leadership has decided not to order group snacks this year. However individuals can bring their own snacks and/or purchase them from vending machines and shops on site.”


Looking forward to seeing all of you in October!
