Women’s REFRESH is a special event that aims to refresh and encourage women as we learn what it means to walk with Jesus daily. We will kick off this special event on Friday, May 3rd at 6:30 PM.  We will gather once again on Saturday, May 4th beginning at 9:00 AM for a day of encouragement, lunch, and beautiful worship.

“COME AFTER ME…Building our life on Jesus

“If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me.”
-Matthew 16:24
How extraordinary!  We are invited into a living, life-changing relationship with Jesus!  This weekend we will look closer at the sweet invitation to “come after” or follow Jesus. To follow Him we have to know Him.  Jesus’ disciples spent time, walked with, stayed close to, and studied Jesus.  As a result, they were changed more and more into the likeness of Christ.

Jo Vitale will be teaching 3 sessions; Called to Follow, Building our Lives on Jesus, and Reflecting Him.  Saturday, we will also have an up-close personal Q&A with Jo who, with her husband Vince, lead the podcast Ask Away.

Tickets for the event are $30. This covers 4 sessions, lite breakfast snacks, and a catered lunch on Saturday. Your lunch option will be made at time of registration.

Women’s REFRESH is an excellent opportunity for women to come together, be reminded to live out our faith in our everyday life, and have encouraging and meaningful guidance that will help us grow in our faith.

Our Speaker

Dr. Jo Vitale is an itinerant evangelist and speaker who is grateful whenever she has the opportunity to engage with people’s deepest questions about life and purpose, culture and faith.  Jo has presented internationally in a variety of contexts including businesses, schools, radio shows, on university campuses (including UC Berkeley, Stanford, West Point, Princeton, Yale, Oxford, LSE, Aberdeen, ASU, and Georgia Tech), and at church conferences  (e.g. Passion City Church, Atlanta; Redeemer Church, NYC; Progressive Baptist Church, Chicago; The Story Church, Houston; Hillsong, Sydney; St Aldates, Oxford).
Jo has three degrees from the University of Oxford: a bachelor’s degree in theology, a master’s degree in biblical interpretation, and a DPhil (PhD) in Old Testament studies. For her doctoral dissertation she wrote on the Old Testament’s depiction of women (specifically, female beauty and blame culture), and she speaks often on cultural misconceptions of Christianity and the Bible. Alongside her graduate studies, Jo worked as an academic tutor at the Oxford Center for Christian Apologetics. Upon graduation, Jo served in the role of the Dean of Studies at the Zacharias Institute in Atlanta, Georgia, and as an itinerant speaker for Ravi Zacharias International Ministries from 2016-2021.
Jo is a wife to Vince and a mom to Raphael (5) and Jonathan (3). Vince and Jo enjoy hosting their Ask Away podcast together, along with making the most of the gorgeous west coast sunsets out in the Bay Area, CA, where they currently reside.
