Among Friends Conference
February 17-18, 2012 in the Worship Center
This thing called life – it’s hard. But when women get in a room together and start sharing stories, powerful things happen. Camaraderie. Honesty. Laughter. Courage.
An Among Friends conference is a Friday night/Saturday morning gathering that gives women a break from the demands of their lives. A time to gather with friends, and be reminded that God has not forgotten us. He is not done writing our stories. We would love for you to join us at First Baptist Church Atlanta as we host this wonderful time of fellowship and encouragement. We look forward to seeing you!
First Look, a class for new members, is normally a four-week class. On February 12, it will be presented as a single, all-afternoon class. Lunch and childcare are not provided. Please register online at www.fba.org/firstlook by Wednesday, February 8.
