21st National Assembly of the Women's Federation for World Peace
Free2Write founder Jennifer Jean is a featured speaker
"The 'Learn to Lead' theme of this year's National Assembly was designed to provide women, young women and mothers alike, with insights and practical tools for leadership. Through nurturing and educating women to understand their God-given role at this time, the hope was to empower women to use their gifts and talents to lead their families and others successfully by applying the motto: Living for the Sake of Others."
