Returning Worship Leader: Sheri Carr
Keynote Speaker: Nicole Given
After being raised a Buddhist, Nicole became a believer in Jesus Christ in May 1992. Later she met Matt, her husband of 10 years. Together, she and Matt have 3 children. Along the way, God revealed His gifts of exhortation and teaching to Nicole and now she counts it an amazing privilege to exhort and teach others in the truth of God's Word. Knowing that God chooses the foolish, she opens the Word with great humility, trusting that God will enable His women to hear and apply His message for them.
