Designed for Life 2021 - Women's Conference

Dear Friend,

Each one of us, uniquely created yet, as a Sisterhood multifaceted and united – we show the world what it means to shine with the grace, beauty, and light of our Creator.

Designed for Life 2021 is going to be epic!

God used this past year to strengthen us as a Sisterhood – empowering us to flourish and expand in ways we could not have imagined.

And now, looking to the future and how it will feel to gather in the room this year – my heart is bursting with excitement as I envision what it will be like – as we come together once again to reveal the glory of His “Divine Image.”

I am so excited that we will be gathering in person for Designed for Life 2021! Although I would love for you to be “in the room”, if that is not possible, an online experience is available for individuals and church groups!

WITH LOVE,
Ps Debbie Lindell – DFL Conference Host

Conference Experience

Over seventeen years ago, Heaven opened, revealing a glimpse of something MAGNIFICENT – and a powerful Sisterhood Revolution began in the heart of a small company of faith-filled girls. And now today this movement encompasses thousands upon thousands of women of all ages and seasons of life from varied backgrounds and history…

GATHERING and uniting as one from all around the world. This is a Sisterhood that welcomes and celebrates your unique design – and all that you were created to be!

So I’m asking you, my friends, that you be joined together in perfect unity – with one heart, one passion, and united in one love. Walk (on the path) together with one harmonious purpose and you will fill my heart with unbounded joy. Phil 2:2

Together as a flourishing, diverse and beautiful Sisterhood, we are walking with one purpose – hand in hand into the future with bold and confident faith.
