From the website:
Welcome to the 2012 Women’s Conference.

We Quaker Women from Northwest Yearly Meeting, North Pacific Yearly Meeting,Freedom Friends Church, and other Quaker groups will gather June 13-17, 2012 at the Menucha Conference Center. In this oasis from the whirlwind and storm of our lives, high above the mighty Columbia River, we will seek God’s grace in the holy and the ordinary.We will worship, fellowship, and work together as we explore the theme, “Living inthe Life and Power: Inviting, Contemplating, and Enacting Grace.” With grace, we will be respectful and open to each other, trying neither to offend nor to take offense, each woman knowing the power of her own truth and the need to make space for other women’s truth. If you find your way clear to join us, and we hope you will, we ask you to take time to explore the theme and write a paper to share with other women. You will find this to be an incredible grounding experience as you prepare for the Conference.

2 Corinthians 9:8 says thereare no limits to the Grace of God. We pray that God’s grace will lead you to be with us.
