It’s time to flourish!🌿💐

Today was our women’s conference! We had a wonderful time of worship together and we were honored to hear a word from our guest speaker, Ashley Petress! Later we ate lunch, provided by , and then made bookmarks!

The verse we meditated on during the event was:
🌸”The righteous flourish like the palm tree and grow like a cedar in Lebanon. They are planted in the house of the Lord; they flourish in the courts of our God.”
‭‭Psalm‬ ‭92‬:‭12‬-‭13‬ ‭ESV‬‬

Praise God for his renewal and strength!🙌🏻

Transformation looks good on you! 👗✨

May 7 was our Chrysalis event, where we honored women who are a part of KARM's program, Serenity. The fashion show celebrated their transformation, renewed confidence, and freedom in Christ Jesus! So many wonderful women were highlighted, and it was beautiful to witness.

Thank you to all who made this event possible, and to everyone who joined us. It was a night we won’t quickly forget! 🦋
