Do you have girls in your Acteens or youth group who have demonstrated leadership ability? Do these girls have a passion for knowing God more and serving His people? Emerging Leaders can have a huge impact on our world, and you can be a part of making it happen. WMU wants to contribute to their continued leadership development.
If this is a girl's returning year there will be a "next-level" track offered for girls returning for a second year. You, as a leader of girls, can nominate candidates to participate in this forum. The forum is by invitation only and is held annually, in conjunction with the WMU & Women's Leadership Equipping and Enrichment event, at Shocco Springs Conference Center, Talladega, Alabama. The cost is $60, which includes accommodations, three meals, and a t-shirt!
