Presenter: Cyneatha Millsaps, Worship Leader
Join us to hear the voices of other women, and find your own in their stories.
We will lift up women’s voices that go unheard or ignored by our world and our churches. Cyneatha Millsaps will lead worships where women from different backgrounds and experiences share their stories of faith – honestly and authentically. In addition to camp activities (pontoon boat rides and nature hikes), we also hope to bring together workshops focused on finding new ways to talk together about issues of our day.
