Registration Form

Travel Assistance Form

Women across the state look forward every year to gathering together for our annual Women on Mission Celebration! This April 17-19, we will meet at First Baptist Church for worship, spiritual encouragement, evangelism, and missions updates! The address is 1100 W. 10th Avenue – Anchorage.

 Our Theme:  Discover God¡¯s Majesty, Mercy, Mystery, Mission 

Date: April 17 registration/meal service (begins at 5:00 p. m.) -
    April 19 closing following lunch (about 1:00 p m.)

Registration Form enclosed. This is the one meeting I feel is worthy of even taking ¡°personal time¡± from work to attend if there is that option. I also try to help with travel costs if that is the only barrier to being able to attend! A request form is enclosed for use as needed, and I will do my best to assist in every way possible.

Come worship and fellowship with us as we meet for our 27th Celebration! SPECIAL GUESTS include worship leader, Cathy Miller, who through StrongFoundations, helps Faith-based ministries reach their full potential. She will be conducting the Strategic Planning & Grant Writing Workshop on Saturday from 1:00-8:00 pm. Our Bible study will be led by Jean White, Church & Community Consultant, NAMB who was with us last year as our home missionary. The IMB representative is another ¡°returnee¡±, Susan Partridge, China. Also coming are Elaine Ham, Pregnancy Care Ministries Associate, NAMB, and Grace McGraw, Church-Community NAMB missionary who ministers in Birmingham, AL.

The variety of conference topics will include IMB and NAMB missions, discovering your Spiritual gifts, making time for God in family life, how to love the unlovable, CPC ministries, an overview of NAMB ministries, & when bad things happen to good people. A few other topics are still to be confirmed! Plus the Baptist Nursing Fellowship (BNF) is meeting on Saturday beginning at 9:30 am.


We are also blessed by having a volunteer WMU team from Kansas-Nebraska coming to again serve in the Kitchen area and a WMU team from Ohio will serve in the preschool area. Home school elementary children are welcome with advanced notice.

HOTELS: Ramada Anchorage Downtown at 115 E. 3rd Avenue is providing a great rate! (see enclosed announcement) and make your reservations soon!

Thank you for all you do in serving the Lord in our state. Please provide this information to all your women so that they might enjoy this wonderful opportunity! And please let me know if you need more posters (also enclosed) for your use.

God bless,

Judy Rice
CCM/wMu Director

PS – It is very seldom grant writing workshops are accessible in Alaska, especially at the registration price we are charging! Therefore, I would deeply appreciate it if you would share this information with Non-Profit Ministries in your area! This is especially important for our attendance but also because we were unable to be listed on the Faith-based GrantStation.com due to the fact too many requests had already been submitted to them to be publicized. Thanks for your help in spreading the word.
