Stacy WaldroopHello girls! I can not believe we are about to celebrate our 5th transformed women's conference. The Lord has so graciously taken us on a beautiful journey through His word these last 4 years. His plan of salvation is truly remarkable. His grace, amazing. His power, unstoppable. His mercy, overwhelming. His love... inexhaustible.
Jesus will always and forever be my first and best love, because He loved me first, and showed me such grace. I'm learning that God's way really is best in every single way. When we surrender completely to Him, it's not as much like laying down our arms and being taken away prisoner; it's more like when a toddler finally surrenders to a nap, safe in mommy's arms. Fed, content, protected. God is a good, good Father. We are the pinnacle of His creation. He really, truly wants the best for us because he loves us so much. He proved that love by sending Jesus, His only Son, to pay our debt to sin. Death. That is love, my friends. And it doesn't get any deeper that that.
I hope you will consider taking the day off, sitting at the feet of Jesus and leaning into what complete surrender looks like for you. I love you girls. I'm praying for you. See you October 15!

Melissa StevensMy name is Melissa Stevens. I am a wife of 34 years to Chris, a mother to three amazing adults, mother-in-law to two amazing women, and a few months ago gladly accepted the title “Mellie” to a beautiful granddaughter.
Like everyone else, we are living in a transition period. From birth until death that is a fact, whether, or not, we choose to believe that we need a Savior, and that Jesus is the Only Way. Life is a constant flow. Some portions will move more slowly, but time waits for no one. The best question is, what will you do with the time you have been given? Romans 12:1-2 I beseech you, therefore, brothers by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service. And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God. A “living sacrifice” indicates something that is active, not stagnant. A mind capable of renewal is a mind God can transform away from the culture of sin in the world. This is why Transformed Women’s Conference matters. As much as I know I need to be constantly, actively, living in transformation mode, I know other women do as well. If you’re not transforming you will be conforming. It’s your choice. Thankfully God has new mercies enough to go around for every day. |

Tanya GaddyMy favorite event of the year is approaching! There is nothing better than meeting with God on the mountain especially in the fall of the year!
Make plans to join us at Transformed Women's Conference on Saturday, October 15. I'm Tanya, I feel like we're old friends. For several years, I have shared the chapters of my life growing up in Canton, growing in my relationship with my husband Brian of 27 years, and raising our 4 children. Through it all, we have clearly seen that the God on the mountain, is still God in the valley. The Transformed team is rooted in the words of Jesus from Isaiah 61 (Luke 4), He has come to heal your broken heart and set you FREE! He has paid your bail bond to open prison doors and release you from the death penalty. Now he wants you to live a life abundantly. Come meet with us sister to discover...Can true freedom be found in surrender? |

Ricki Lynn LalemandHello again, my beautiful sisters! I'm Ricki Lynn, born and raised in Waynesville,NC. I was married in 2021 and with that, I have been blessed with 10 children and 7 grandchildren, thanks to our Lord Jesus Christ. Most days you will find me at LifeWorks, sharing Jesus with all that come through our doors. He is all I need and all that I have to give!!
I love this journey with Jesus, it's up it's down, but He NEVER leaves me.(Hebrews 13:5) This last year has been a long one, coming in to being a wife, the blending of two families, my husband's retirement, and the changes happening at LifeWorks! Through it all His joy is my strength, (Nehemiah 8:10) the victory is His,(Psalm112:8) and He encourages me so I can encourage others!(Isaiah 40:31) Excited to worship with you soon! |

Amanda LeatherwoodI would be nothing if it weren't for Jesus! He is my Savior and my only Hope! I am grateful that He has allowed me to be a part of Transformed and to witness first hand the miracles He has done behind the scenes, in women's lives and in my own life through this conference. To Him be all the glory! By His grace, He has blessed me with David, a husband who loves Him and two boys whom I get to stay at home with and teach. Staying at home with the boys has been the greatest privilege and also the hardest job I have had all wrapped together. I'm so excited for Transformed 2022. I'm excited to witness again this year the miracles the Lord desires to perform!

Sydney Bridges I'm Sydney & you can usually find me hiking, traveling, or amongst Cornerstone's Youth Group. The Lord has given me a burden for the next gen, and discipling them. He's been reminding me of HIS sufficiency regardless of age (Jeremiah 1:4-10, 1 Timothy 4:12) and my desperate need for Him for many years now. That's one reason I love TWC. Every age, united in the Spirit to worship & honor our Savior together. A foretaste of heaven! We're going to have the best time at Transformed this year and I am so excited to hang with you and meet with the Lord together.
