Ladies save the date because it is drawing near to our sixth annual Dear Daughter of Mine Conference!

Our event will be Saturday, October 8th, 2022. Please mark it on your calendars and tell your sisters in Christ!

We encourage you to start planning for this day and to bring all your favorite ladies in your life-ages 10 on up! We have another great line up for speakers with powerful messages and a wonderful time of praise and worship.

This year's theme is:
"Savoring the Sweet Fragrance of Sisterly Counsel"

Our Key Scriptures are:

Oil and perfume make the heart glad, and the sweetness of a friend comes from his earnest counsel. Proverbs 27:9 ESV

Also the NLT translation for a slightly different perspective:

The heartfelt counsel of a friend is as sweet as perfume and incense.

Conference will run from 9 am -2 pm with an optional bonus roundtable session from 2:15-2:45 pm. For those who have questions and want to discuss things a bit further with the speakers we'll remain available in a low-key comfortable conversational setting to help attendees process points shared and revelation gained throughout the day.

We will have 3 different speakers throughout the day:
Ordained Pastor at Living Gospel Church, Karrie Landsverk-will open up our conference with a special message for all ladies based on this year's theme.

Pastor Karrie Pastor of Living Gospel Church, Professional Speaker and Educator.

Karrie has been serving as pastor of Living Gospel Church for over seven years and has earned her master's in Theology and is working towards completing her doctorate in 2023 in Ministry. She has grown in her understanding of what it means to live life abundantly in Christ over the years and gives much thanks to God for His gift of sisterhood to help guide her in this journey and be a great support and strength to her along the way. She treasures the friendships God has ordained for her in other women who choose to seek the Lord-each one bringing a richness to her understanding of living by faith.

Karrie feels very blessed to be celebrating her 21st anniversary this fall with her husband Jon, and for the gifts of 3 children-Jonny, Reese and Riley along with several pets, who all make her life very full. She cherishes family time-watching her children discover themselves, digging in her gardens, walking her dogs-or more so them walking her, and her first sips of coffee in the quiet moments of the morning.

Gill Robertson is our other speaker for adult ladies.
Her message will be focusing on "Healthy Relationships".

Gill shares we can really only have healthy friendships when we begin with friendship with Jesus as our foundation. Gill will take truths found in John 15 regarding how healthy friendships bear good fruit, are sacrificial, encourage our obedience, and are loving (ie. wanting the best for each other). God designed us for relationship (in person, not virtual) and in community. Proverbs 27:9 indicates that our closest friendships should be focused on more than having a good time; they should also encourage us in our relationship with Christ. (We don’t need friends who are critical, but we also don’t want friends who will validate us when we have attitudes or make choices that aren’t pleasing to God.) Let's explore and build on God's truth for healthy relationships with our sisters.

Gill is a hospice chaplain in Madison and also works alongside her husband, Craig, as a pastor of New Crossing Church, a nondenominational church in Sun Prairie. Over the years she is learning to believe that God loves her for who she is rather than for what she does. She desires for everyone to have a community within which they can discover the beauty of living in God’s truth. Gill is passionate about healthy relationships and marriages and cares deeply about unity in the body of Christ. She loves the outdoors and experiences God’s beauty in creation when she gets to ride her bike, paddle a kayak, go hiking or just enjoy the plants on her deck; she is also an avid Scottish dancer!. Gill grew up in England and met and married Craig in California. They have an adult daughter and son, a son-in-law and a baby granddaughter.

She has recently traveled to Italy with her good friend and sister in Christ, Sarah. What a blessing to share such a wonderful trip with someone so dear.

Katie Schrankel will be this year's youth speaker. She will be sharing a message for our young ladies.

Title: The Sweet Fragrance of Friendship

Theme Verse: Proverbs 27:9 The heartfelt counsel of a friend is as sweet as perfume and incense.

Have you ever thought about how the advice and care of a true friend is like sweet perfume? Consider how the sweetness of a fragrant perfume lingers and lasts. Just the mere thought of kind words from a friend can bring a smile to our face. God has uniquely designed us with the need for the structure of family, community and friendship. Throughout this session, we will explore the value of Godly friendship through Christ's example, then looking inward at our own hearts. Dear sisters, I look forward to this journey of growing in God together and cultivating sweet friendships that reflect the fragrance of Christ.

My name is Katie Schrankel. My husband Chad and I are blessed with six beautiful children between the ages 5 & 15. We are currently serving as the Children's Ministers at Shell Lake Full Gospel Church and have a passion to teach God's Word and minister to families in our community. I enjoy studying the Bible, painting, doing hair, baking cookies and going on hiking adventures with my friends and family.

Danae Gibson will serve as our worship leader. She is a member and serves at Osage Life Church in Osage, IA.
Danae shares:
I felt the Lord call me to worship when I was 14 years old. From that moment I have been working on getting to know how to worship the Lord on and off stage. Worship is not just singing it’s in every aspect of our lives. I have been greatly married to my Husband Andrew now for 8 years and we have three daughters! Aria is 5, Raelle is 2 1/2, & Teagan who is 1. We added Autumn who is 17 to our house in June of this year. I look forward to sharing my passion for worship and being a vessel that God will use!

The schedule for the day:
All will enjoy our first message, with the youth breaking about half way through to enjoy a fun ice breaker activity on their own. We'll have a short break and dive into our second messages from Gill and Katie and allow for great small group sharing following the messages.

We'll all come back together for a wonderful lunch served by the men of Living Gospel Church and enjoy a time of fellowship. Lunch will be included: soup, salad, rolls, and dessert. Coffee and water as well. Feel free to bring your own food if you have special dietary needs.

We'll gather back together for additional praise and worship and our tradition of sharing love letters from God for all ladies.

It's sure to be a wonderful day to come together as God's daughters! Please help spread the word and be sure to join in this uplifting and powerful day of worship!
