Are you a woman who is longing for more of God in your life?
Women all across Montana and around the world are sensing a call from God and are looking for their unique purpose. We invite you to gather with women from around our state to worship and spend time in His Presence. Recognizing that we are living in an historic time, we are expectant that God will meet us and reveal what He has in store for His daughters to do. Many women feel they have no voice to influence their communities. Others have felt neglected, under-estimated or limited by others. We have been blessed to discover that God has a very unique and powerful plan for women to shape history in our lifetimes.
Our mandate at Deborahs Arising is to lift women up and help them discover their true identity and destiny. We want to encourage them and restore a sense of their God-given value. Whether through times of teaching, worship or personal ministry, we know God’s heart is to meet each woman there.
We look forward to joining with you at the beautiful Fairmont Hot Springs resort for Deborahs Arising 2026!
