More than 150 women from Colorado attended the Hispanic Women’s Ministries Convention at Brighton Seventh-day Adventist Church on October 12. They met under a theme of “Mujeres conforme al Corazon de Dios” – “Women After God’s Own Heart.” The gathering featured Sarah Capeles as speaker and singer, who shared insightful messages on ways to get closer to Jesus. Nohemi Hernandez, MD, joined the team with practical messages with her theme “Healthy Woman. Happy Family”, giving the women advice on how to improve their health.
“Although there were women from various congregations, it all felt like we all became part of a larger sisterhood sharing testimonies and praising God for His goodness,” commented Patricia Rivera, organizer of the convention.
A health station and a prayer station were very popular. Participating women had the opportunity to check their blood pressure and to be ministered through prayer. The gathering ended with a concert by Sarah Capeles.
During the event “we learned much about ways to take care of ourselves and how to connect with God. Overall, I know everyone benefitted from this event,” Rivera added.
