We took the DIVE!

melinda — Sun, 22 Nov 2009 03:04:29 +0000

Me in front of my on-stage "creative lab!" at DIVE!

We dove in at DIVE on Nov. 7 at Christ Church of Oak Brook, IL. Mindy Caliguire spoke on diving deeper into our relationship with God, Anita Lustrea challenged us to risk deeper spiritual friendships and I had a blast talking about discovering our (sometimes long-lost or hibernating) God-instilled creativity. We ended the day with a panel of women talking about how God’s calling in our life evolves through the seasons of our life. Angie Thomas led beautiful worship. We met some open and spirtually-seeking new friends. Thanks for taking the DIVE with us ladies!
