The Women of Grace apostolate will mark 30 years at its national conference this year, an event which aims to help women celebrate their "gift of authentic femininity."
"Come be restored, renewed, and refreshed as we journey together through this transforming weekend!" organizers said in an announcement. "Discover the blessing of your femininity and how to follow our Blessed Mother's example in the world today!"
Johnnette S. Benkovic, EWTN host and founder and president of Women of Grace, will be among the event's speakers.
The national conference will take place in Albuquerque, N.M. at St. Jude Thaddeus Catholic Church Friday, Sept. 8 through Sunday, Sept. 10.
The conference is based on the theme "Bloom Who You Are."
Besides Benkovic, other presenters include Father Philip Scott, F.J., founder of the Family of Jesus; singer/songwriter and Catholic evangelist Kitty Cleveland; and Carol Marquardt, founder of the Mantle of Mary Association Prayer Network.
Musical presenters include Kitty Cleveland and the worship team Living Praise.
The conference will include Mass, opportunities for confession and Eucharistic Adoration, a healing service, and a musical presentation. Spanish translation will be provided, as will a young women's track.
The full cost of $140 includes a Friday boxed dinner, as well as lunch and dinner on Saturday. Other registration options are available.
Benkovic will lead a Benedicta Leadership Enrichment Seminar at the same location Sept. 7-8.
