Triennial Regular Registration Date Pushed Back

CHICAGO, IL (July 22, 2013) – The regular registration deadline for Triennial XIV has been pushed back to July 31.

The event, sponsored by the Evangelical Covenant Church Department of Women Ministries, will be held August 15-18 at the Town and Country Resort and Conference Center in San Diego, California.

Regular registration is $359. Late registration will be $389.

“We are so excited to now have 800 women registered for Triennial XIV,” said Meagan Gillan, Women Ministries executive director. “We’re pleased about the numbers, for sure, we know the event becomes a new and better thing because each woman adds her uniqueness and her distinct personality to the mix.”

Keynote speakers include Kanyere Eaton, pastor of Fellowship Covenant Church in Bronx, New York; Judy Peterson, campus pastor at North Park University; Renee Stearns, an international human rights advocate; and Bianca Juarez, a writer and speaker who is the chief storyteller for the A21 Campaign, an anti-trafficking organization.

Eaton inspired the gathering of more than 1,200 Covenant ministers and spouses at the Midwinter Conference held at the same resort in February. To view her sermon, click here.
