Last Friday night we offered a Prayer Warrior Bootcamp for women from high school through adult. A small group of ladies, including four guests, gathered to learn to pray together, overcome the fear of praying out loud, and practice a plan for praying with intentionality and boldness.

Cyndee Ownbey is the creator of the Women’s Ministry Toolbox online community and the founder of Women’s Ministry Toolbox (www.womensministrytoolbox.com). She has a slew of resources to support and lead women in ministry. With almost 8,900 members, it’s a safe place for sharing resources and encouragement for women serving women around the world in the local church and beyond. I purchased both the leader and participant workbook to copy and didn’t change a thing. 

Our goal was to offer training for a holy habit to be practiced in Christian community AND leverage as an onramp to the Bible studies and small groups beginning two weeks later. 

Promo info: How’s your prayer life? You don’t have to settle for an okay prayer life or be filled with fear and dread when it comes to prayer. Ephesians 3:12 tells us we can approach our great God with boldness and confidence! Come learn how.
Ladies of all ages and stages are invited to the Prayer Warrior Bootcamp on Friday, August 25, 2023, 6-10pm in Oaks Hall.
Adult tickets are $25 per person and includes dinner.
Student tickets for high school through 25 year old adult ladies are $5.
Sponsored by McEachern Women’s Ministry.

We ordered Chicken Salad Chick for dinner delivery, invited ladies to wear camo or workout clothes with a pop of pink color; offered all the teas and cucumber lemonade (my favorite summer beverage).

Three different ladies were the ‘personal trainers’ to lead the different sections adding a chatty response of sharpie painting prayer rocks just before the closing. Chatty response = our hands are busy with a creative response to what we’ve learned while we chat and grow in relationship with one another. 

Our event design team will gather soon to offer another holy habit teaching workshop, but first we are rolling out Bible studies and small groups and we couldn’t be more excited.
