Praise was everywhere at the conference.
Conference
from page B4
Hill.
"It's time to unmask
ourselves and release the
true beauty deep within,
said Pastor Washington,
who was inspired by her
work with female prison
ers to start the conference
in 2007. "The Power of
God fell and women were
set free. The masks came
off and God's anointing
power began to restore,
heal, and deliver."
Attendee Minister
Pecolia Breathette said
the conference was like
none she'd ever attended.
"This conference did
pot have any workshops,
nail care or hair care ses
sions," she said. "It deals
with the spirit of a
woman, the inner depths
of her soul to set her free.
And many were set free
and empowered."
