‘Discipleship, leadership and more’: GA women challenged to respond to God’s call

Georgia Baptist Women recently held their annual Women’s Spring Event at First Baptist Jonesboro.

More than 650 women were encouraged by inspirational messages, met with missionaries, participated in mission projects and gathered and interacted with like-minded sisters in Christ to grow in their faith and relationships with each other.

Beth Ann Williams, lead strategist for Georgia Baptist Women, said it is always a special time when women come together: “The energy this year was palpable!” She added, “Women were challenged to prepare their hearts to hear from God and to respond to His call…and they did!
