Testimonials

“…So much for working with us. You have no idea how badly I would like to host this conference. After meeting with you I truly feel that we (Hilton Hotel – South Field) will be blessed from your event. As far as using the restaurant the answer is both yes and no. We must be open until 11:00 a.m. with breakfast on the weekends, but after that the restaurant is definitely an option. We would have to determine what functions will be held in the restaurant to be sure they would not be disrupting to our guests utilizing public areas but that is definitely an option to consider. Once you hear from Paulette regarding her date preference, please let me know and I will rework the contract to work for everyone. Thanks for your patience and support Kim."

"I was at the Express Your Worship Conference in November. I would just like to start by saying that the conference was a life-changing experience for me and one I will never forget! I have recently come to know and serve the Lord my God and when I first heard about the conference I didn't know what to expect, but I am so thankful that I was obedient and did attend. I was in dance since I was three years old and did so up to 12 yrs. I did the basic ballet jazz and also flamenco but I had never imagined that I could have expressed myself through dance in so many different other ways and not only that, but to be praising God while doing it. Not only did I learn a variety of dances, but I was also being fed the word by the very anointed teachers that were there and appreciated everyone's sensitivity to the Holy Spirit. I came back home on fire for the Lord and ready to reach out to all the unbelievers and believers through my praise dance. I just want to thank you for being obedient because I believe that not only my life was touched and changed through your conference but that many others were too!"
