Holli Aparicio Author, Speaker and Founder of “All Things Prayer”

#1 Morning Speaker - Hearing God’s Heart

You were created to hear God’s voice and to experience intimacy with Him! In this workshop we will explore and experience God speaking to: reveal his unconditional love to us, encourage and comfort us, heal our hears, and show us how he sees us.


Rebekah Marlow Heart Healing Advocate, Speaker & Writer

#2 Morning Speaker - A Pure Heart: Letting God Heal the Hidden Places

Unresolved wounds can take root deep within the heart, giving rise to lies and unhealthy patterns that allow the enemy to gain influence. In this session women will be invited to bring these hidden places before God, discovering how healing begins in the secret place as they encounter His presence and receive ministry though prayer and intercession. While intimacy with the Lord is the foundation, healing is often strengthened through the support of trusted individuals who can speak truth and life, As women respond in obedience and walk with God’s truth, their hearts are restored, and they rediscover their identity in Christ, walking in the authority, purpose and in the fullness of God has for them.

Pastor Rae Lynn Stands, Children’s Director, Children’s Pastor

Afternoon Speaker - Romance Novels: How to Rewire The Heart

How romance novels rewire the brain to desire things we were never meant to want. Having unbiblical and unrealistic expectations in our relationships leads to unhappy marriages or unfulfilled hearts. It changes how we view ourselves through the lens we have allowed into our brains, emotions and hearts. Instead of filling ourselves with the Word of God and letting Him guide us into who He designed us to be.
