Terrie E. Long, a social worker in the senior care program at Starr Regional Medical Center, will be one of the speakers for Morning Pointe of Athens’ 2nd annual Made for More women’s conference on Saturday, April 12.
About the Women’s Conference
The event will start at noon with a lunch at Sweetwater First Baptist Church, located at 303 Wright Street in Sweetwater, Tennessee.
Long will share about unconditional love, based on John 13:25. She is not only a master of social work but also an ordained elder at Orchard Park Seventh-day Adventist Church in Chattanooga. She has authored numerous devotionals and is a public speaker and soloist as well.
“When you understand how much God loves you, your life will be filled with joy and freedom beyond comprehension,” Long shared.
“We are excited to welcome Terrie and hear the message she has to bring from her vibrant relationship with the Lord and her years of experience,” said Crystal Sutton, executive director at Morning Pointe of Athens. “Last year’s conference was such a blessing, and we can’t wait for this year’s.”
The afternoon will also include praise and worship, as well as another devotional message from Kristy Stafford, director of nursing at Morning Pointe of Athens. Ladies pre-teen and older are invited. Tickets are $15 and can be purchased in advance at Sweetwater First Baptist Church or Morning Pointe of Athens. Event T-shirts will also be available for purchase for $15 beforehand or day-of.
