 Monterey is Calling! Women's Retreat 2008

The Women's Retreat for 2008 was held on January 25-27 at the Hyatt Regency Resort in Monterey. The weekend was very exciting included an array of seminars, great fellowship and fun, and the keynote speaker was Sheri Rose Shepherd from Bend, Oregon.

Sheri Rose

Sheri-Rose Sheri Rose has a very refreshing way of bringing the Word of God to life. She knows how to renew the Eternal Hope in our hearts. Her speaking style is humorous, heartwarming and inspires her listeners to make their lives count for eternity.

Sheri Rose is a woman who can relate to almost any woman's battle. This former Mrs. United States grew up in a dysfunctional home and was severely overweight as a teen. As a young woman, she battled depression and an eating disorder. She understands the pain that comes from a broken home and she knows what it means to fight for freedom from your past.

In spite of an English teacher telling her she was 'born to lose' and a learning disorder (Dyslexia), Sheri Rose has (in God's strength) written best-selling books, founded His Princess Ministries and speaks to thousands each year at churches and women's conferences.

Her Joy for the Lord, humorous heart-warming stories mixed with truth and transparency renew our Faith by reminding us how much we are truly loved and adored by our Father in heaven.

Once you hear Sheri Rose speak, you will never again doubt that you are... "God's Chosen Princess", here for a divine purpose!

Sheri Rose Shepherd was named the #1 Show of the year on Focus on the Family with Dr James Dobson. Her book, Life is Not a Dress Rehearsal, is endorsed by Women of Faith speakers Patsy Claremont, Barbara Johnson, and Thelma Wells.

Her inspiring life story and books have been featured on Lifetime Television for Women and NBC's Inside Edition. Sheri Rose has written seven books, three of which are best sellers. She travels extensively speaking to approximately 30,000 people each year.

She and her husband have been married 19 years and have two children, Jake (18) and Emily (7).

School of Women's Ministries

Most women in ministry have little or no training for leadership. As a result, they often lack the confidence and feel unskilled in ministry.
