"Women of Purpose" Conference

September 26-28, 2008 ~ Salt Fork Resort ~ Cambridge, OH

Worship with the Duffields!

Jeff and Sue Duffield, New Jersey natives, married in 1974 and actually started singing together while in High School. Jeff knew at an early age that he would make his career playing the piano. At 15, he was backing artists like Evie Tornquist, The Envoys, The Couriers, and others. He started his recording career at Baldwin Sound Studios in Mechanicsburg, PA, and quickly became the studio piano player for many gospel artists.

During that time, Sue was also making a 'local' name for herself. She released her first album, 'Sheltered In The Arms Of God', while she was just a junior at Penns Grove High School. After they graduated from High School, they traveled with the Sammy Hall Singers, from Sevierville, TN. That two year tour with Sammy would turn out to be the perfect 'on-the-road' education and fine-tuning of their own music ministry and abilities.

Jeff also was music minister at two churches, while Sue led worship and directed women's groups. Sue also was the morning DJ at WNRK radio in Delaware for 12 years. She continues to speak for women's conferences, retreats, and special workshops.

Registration Information Coming Soon!

Alongside of our Keynote Speaker and Worship Leaders, we have a great variety of ladies coming to share in our workshop opportunities. Lots of giveaways are planned - as well as times to connect and share together as 'women of purpose' striving to bring glory and honor to our Savior, Jesus Christ!

We're getting our 'early bird' rates together and have the lodging 'on hold' all in anticipation of a great weekend together. Registration "how to's" should be available mid-May and brochures will be mailed to all churches. Registration information will also be available online for easy access anytime day or night.

We hope and pray that attending the "Women of Purpose" Conference is the pathway that God may be leading you on this fall!

A Chance To Relax & Reflect

Salt Fork Resort & Conference Center is conveniently located near interstates to make your travel simple, but is tucked away in Ohio's largest state park surrounded by beautiful woods, hiking trails and lots of wildlife viewing opportunities. The lodge itself was built reminscent of the turn-of-the-century Grand Lodge style, but has all the modern conveniences we have grown to love. On-site you will find access to indoor/outdoor pools, a Jacuzzi, game room and a fitness center. For more information check out their website at http://www.saltforkresort.com/

How Do I Get Registered?

We're in process right now of putting together workshops, speakers and registration information. We hope to have brochures available and in your hands by May. Keep your eyes peeled for more updates on this website as well as at www.ub.org

Save the date on your calendar (and your church calendar) and start putting away a bit of cash to help cover the cost of your expenses. Also, consider checking with your Pastor or leadership team about providing partial scholarships for ladies in your church who would like to attend!

Invite your friends and fellow ministry leaders to join us for a special weekend of friendship, learning, connecting and worship. We so look forward to connecting with you in the coming months and years!
