The workshop is a full-day training featuring three teaching sessions with Dr. Juli Slattery, a Q&A session, and time to process the content, both individually and in small-group discussions. Lunch and snacks will be provided, but childcare is not provided.
Childcare is not provided, but infants are welcome.
If your daughter is 16 or older, she is welcome to attend with you (separate registration required). We believe this year’s workshop presents an excellent opportunity for discipleship. Please note that we won't be modifying or limiting adult discussion in ways that cater explicitly to teens or younger women. So, moms need to be willing and available to help their daughters navigate the teaching and discussion based on their maturity level.
We’re happy to provide partial scholarships to anyone who needs financial assistance. Please request a scholarship here BEFORE registering.
Refunds and location changes are available if requested through the form below through September 4. After that date, we'll no longer issue refunds (and you'll forfeit your workshop swag). Request a refund here.
