REGISTRATION FOR THIS YEAR'S AWM HOPE™ CONFERENCE IS NOW CLOSED.
In APRIL 26 - 28, 2022 we will be hosting our sixth annual A Widow’s Might, Inc. AWM Hope™ Conference/retreat.
Our theme this year will be focused on how our HOPE SPRINGS ETERNAL as we continue to fulfill God's purpose for our lives. As with our other AWM Hope™ Conferences/retreats, there will be great times of worship and fellowship, interspersed with valuable information geared towards helping us grow and move forward in our journeys.
It is incredibly helpful to be in community with other Christian women, walking through a similar journey of widowhood, who are seeking to honor and glorify God with their lives. In just a few short days you will form friendships that will encourage and strengthen you for years to come!
We will be returning to the beautiful, serene lakeside Camp Copass in Denton, Texas, just 25 minutes from the Dallas/Fort Worth airport.
Camp Copass, 8200 E McKinney St, Denton, TX 76208
We are excited to announce that, thanks to our generous sponsors, we are once again able to offer a reduced cost. Our three-day AWM Hope™ Conference costs include the three-day event, deluxe accommodations for two nights, and all meals. The Early Bird rate (until March 1, 2022) is $299 double occupancy or $399 single occupancy. (All rooms have two queen size beds).
For those of you who are flying, the DFW airport is the major hub for American Airlines and as such offers more direct flights which can be more cost effective. In addition, the Super Shuttle Service is available to Camp Copass which may provide a lower cost option to a car rental.

Widows need community. They need to be able to talk, hug, cry, comfort, encourage and inspire one another. Being with other Christian widows can actually help them feel “normal” again. Our team will never forget what a huge relief it was for us when we stepped into a room full of other widows for the first time. Immediately, we felt the tension we had been walking around with for months being released as we realized we didn’t have to worry about:
what someone might ask
having to explain I was a widow and when/how I lost my husband
being embarrassed if I suddenly teared up
Listening to a story about someone’s perfect life
We take it for granted that widows know other widows. At our first AWM Hope™ Conference one of our participants shared she had been a widow for five years and it was the first time she had met another widow. Others have told us that even at very large churches (over 2,000 people) there are usually only a couple of widows. Imagine what that means for most widows. Yes, there are other conferences out there for widows, but unlike others, our AWM Hope™ Conferences are focused on helping widows to encourage one another in sharing their stories of God’s faithfulness.
If you would like to make it possible for a widow to enjoy the fellowship possible at a AWM Hope™ Conference, please click here to sponsor either a specific widow or to help minimize the overall cost of a AWM Hope™ Conference.
