There's no better time to PowerUP in Christ!

 

Mark your calendars for May 14 - 16, 2010

in beautiful Tahlequah, Oklahoma

             

In the Heart of the Cherokee Nation

 

The PowerUP Conference is for women & men who want to PowerUP their faith life, as well as their health & fitness (spirit, soul & body)! 

  

Welcome! Get ready for a weekend conference retreat with Christian Fitness Expert and PraiseMoves founder Laurette Willis, along with guest speakers in the fields of health & nutrition for spirit, soul and body; fitness; prayer -- even humor! (see Speakers and Schedule)

 

Both Friday and Saturday evening PowerUP sessions at 7:00 p.m. feature:

* Holy Spirit-led teaching, preaching, praise, prayer and laughter with Laurette Willis & friends

* PLUS – Special guests, Improv Comedy, HipHop2 Scripture, Actors w/Under the Cherokee Moon–& more!

 

On Saturday, join us for an optional PraiseMoves workout, then a PowerUP Session in the Sanctuary. Choose from workshops on health, nutrition, fitness, Christian meditation, humor, Improv and more in the Family Life Center. See Speakers for description of classes.

 

Have lunch with us (order at registration). Workshops continue in the morning and the afternoon.

 

For CPIs-in-Training, a PraiseMoves Instructor certification taught by CPI Trainer NolaJeanne Baird will be available all day on Saturday, May 15 (for info, see the Teacher Certification page at: http://www.praisemoves.com/teachercertification.htm).

For Current CPIs who need to recertify, NolaJeanne will hold a recertification on Friday afternoon 1-5:30 p.m.

Special Guest Speaker: Roberta J. Potts, J.D., attorney and daughter of the late Rev. Oral Roberts. Roberta will share a heartfelt, motivational message entitled "Under the Shadow" about growing up as a shy child in the shadow of a great evangelist, as well as "under the shadow of the Almighty," our heavenly Father.

 After Sunday morning worship service in the Sanctuary and lunch on your own, Sunday afternoon will find us holding an old-fashioned tent meeting - a Healing ReNEWal outdoors at the Prayer Farm, future site of Willis Ministries' retreat  & conference center north of Tahlequah.

Where is Tahlequah?

 

Nestled in the Ozark foothills of northeastern Oklahoma, Tahlequah is the headquarters for PraiseMoves, but it's also the capital of the Cherokee Nation, the terminus of the Trail of Tears, home of the first school of higher learning for women west of the Mississippi (Cherokee Female Seminary, now the site of the Cherokee Heritage Center/National Museum; "Fem Sem" has since become Northeastern State University), and is in the middle of one of the most popular recreation and retirement areas in the U.S. (Directions at link below.)

  

Located about an hour from both the Tulsa and NW Arkansas airports, Tahlequah is easy to find. You may want to rent a car at the airport, or arrange to have one of our team pick you up for a reasonable fee (call 918-458-1800 or 800-211-8446 to make arrangements as soon as possible).
