Testimonials from the 2022 Leadership Summit
“I very much enjoyed worshipping with and meeting all the other women from around the U.S. and those in my state I had not yet met. The women were great, and it was very exciting being in the Capitol of our nation with like-minded women who love the Lord. It was also very encouraging to hear all the Senators speak about their faith. I loved the last night when we all prayed together. God very much blessed us!”
–Shelden Smith, Prayer/Action Chapter Leader, CWA of California
“I can’t even begin to express my thoughts on what a blessing last week was. The emphasis on the gospel of Jesus Christ and living godly under obedience to the Word of God was so encouraging. I had no idea what to expect, but the speakers, instruction, and godly exhortation was such a needed reminder.”
–Margarite Jaramillo, Prayer/Action Chapter Leader, New Mexico
“I am so grateful for the training I received and for the education on the vital issues. I came away very refreshed. I felt ready to go back to the front lines; the local issues, school boards, the education and encouragement of the women in my town, the essential of prayer.”
–Sally Imhoff, TN
“It was a wonderful example of excellence in every detail. From the organization to the speakers to the venues to the food to the lodging, it was all superb. I thoroughly enjoyed hearing from the Representatives and Senators that CWA lined up. And to hear them in the Capitol Hill Club; priceless! The speakers on Friday were informative and interesting. The unity, camaraderie, and worship were great. Both evenings were experiences that most of us only dream about.”
– Sue Simmons, Chapter Coordinator, CWA of New Mexico
