Master’s Men and WNAC invite couples to a weekend of retreat and renewal.  Husbands and wives can enjoy time together and time away while they gain biblical principles and practical advice for “Staying in Love.” Two dates in two different locations offer flexibility.

Identical conferences February 17-19 at the Doubletree Hotel in Chattanooga, Tennessee, and March 23-25 at the Grand Plaza Hotel in Branson, Missouri will feature Brother Joe Grizzle as speaker. Brother Grizzle and his wife Billie not only enjoy a lasting marriage, but have also guided and encouraged countless couples throughout their years of ministry at CrossPointe Free Will Baptist Church of Norman, Oklahoma.

The weekend conferences run Friday evening through Sunday noon and include scheduled sessions, pocketed times for interaction and fellowship, a free afternoon for rest and/or exploring the area, a Saturday night banquet and Sunday morning worship.

Join WNAC, November 15-19, in honoring the ”Jewel Qualities” of home missionary wives during the annual PreThanksgiving Week of Prayer for National Home Missions. The week includes daily opportunities in praise and prayer for women involved in North American church planting and also presents a challenge from the Word to nurture these qualities in our own lives.

The week also builds momentum for FWBHM’s annual Mission: North America Offering the following Sunday (November 21). Women are encouraged to give cheerfully and generously to support this vital ministry.

WNAC and FWBHM jointly provide materials for both personal and local church women’s group use. A free packet is available by mail (one per church group, please) or you may download selective resources.
