REDWOOD CITY, CA (June 27, 2006) – Peninsula Covenant Church is sponsoring the Ashes to Beauty Women\u2019s Conference to be held from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. July 22. <\/p>\n
\u201cWe want to connect women in the entire bay area,\u201d says Kirsten Devlin, the administrative coordinator for student ministries and postmodern ministries. \u201cWe also want to connect women inter-generationally.\u201d<\/p>\n
Three generations of speakers will be represented. Autumn Buzzell will represent women from high school through post-college ages. She will speak about the point in her life when she realized that Christ saw her for who she is and not the \u201cmask\u201d she was wearing. Buzzell is an intern at Peninsula Covenant and had the initial vision for the conference.<\/p>\n
Representing the mid-30s through 40-year-olds, Laurie Polich of Ocean Hills Covenant Church will speak about broken relationships. Pat Sikora, representing women over age 50, will speak about God\u2019s promises in Isaiah 61 and the healing that comes in Christ.<\/p>\n
By having women of different ages speak and attend, women can learn from a vast array of experiences, especially as they learn to work through different forms of brokenness, Devlin says. Worship, response times, media presentations, and a concert also are scheduled.<\/p>\n
