About . . . . . . . . . . .
Carole Hamilton, founder and coordinator of the Texas Women’s Empowerment
Conference (TWEC), believes every woman has a story to tell. For the past several
years, Carole has mentored, taught and counseled females of all ages. Now, she is
preparing for the 7th annual Texas Women’s Empowerment Conference, one of the
area’s largest conferences ever to be hosted by the women of the Churches of Christ.
The conference motto, See It! Say It! Seize It! derived from a book Carole read by
John C. Maxwell, which focused on stretching ones potential. She envisioned an
event where women could share their stories, a forum that welcomed women of diverse
backgrounds and ethnic groups, and a venue to promote healing from the many things
women suffer with from the inside out.
August 14 - 16, 2015
The 7th annual conference will be held August 14-16, 2015. Located in the heart of Legacy Town Center, this
area has a blend of upscale dining, retail and residential establishments within a community setting. In addition,
this unique destination hosts the Angelika Film Center & Café, the nation’s only suburb specialty cinema.
The theme for 2015 is “God’s Life Class.” This event is not only for women, but there will also be age-appropriate
classes for girls 8 to 17 years old. Attendees will not only be educated, pampered, empowered, and encouraged,
but some attendees may be hearing the gospel of Jesus Christ for the first time, as there will be an evangelism
team on hand for the entire conference. Women of different ages, experiences, and ethnicities will be joining
forces for a Christian event, which will inspire us all to become better women, mothers, daughters, wives, and
sisters. The Texas Women’s Empowerment Conference is dedicated to empowering women in all walks of life
through God’s word. “I would like to tell any woman, young or old, to invest in you for one weekend,” Carole
said. “Come expecting, and you will walk away empowered.”

The Texas Women’s Empowerment Conference is for females only. NOTE: Men can attend the worship service
with their spouse or significant other on SUNDAY ONLY
