Sister Chicks For Christ presents the 8th Annual Ladies' Night Out!!
MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 27, 2010 General Admission tickets: $6.00
Tickets can be purchased by calling
The Foundation Box Office at 828-826-9990. Speaker: Sue Heimer
We began Ladies Night Out in a home in
2003. By the third year it had to be moved first to the Firehouse
Inn, and then finally to the Foundation at Isothermal Community
College. Attendance has grown from 10 to 600. It is a conference for
women who do not have the money or the time to attend large
conferences. It is done on a Monday night with plastic tablecloths
to make it casual. It is a time to bring hope and encouragement to
all women....to lift them up and challenge them to change their
families, neighborhoods, churches, and hopefully, our nation.
Donations are accepted, but we do not ask - God always provides and
places it on the heart of an individual the amount to give. The
tickets help us to know how much food we will need. We pray that
every lady will know that God planned this event just for
her...giving God all the glory.

Harold and the Purple Crayon
TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 2
One evening, after thinking it over for
some time, Harold decided to go for a walk in the moonlight.” As it
turned out, there wasn’t any moon that night nor was there a path to
walk on, so Harold simply drew them. And thus his journey began.
Resourceful and brave, Harold creates the world he wants to explore,
using nothing more than a big purple crayon and his sky’s the-limit
imagination. Using life-size puppets, masks, magic and music,
Enchantment Theatre’s production will take you on a wild ride as Harold
jets to Mars (shooting stars, space ships!), joins a circus (he walks a
tightrope!) and meets a king in an enchanted garden. (Based on the books
by Crockett Johnson) Presented by The Foundation |
