All of these influences can distract us from getting to know who we really are or walking in the purpose that God intended for us to live.

He uses all kinds of weapons against us and we also need our arsenal, which is mighty through God; to the pulling down of strongholds. Who Gave Him Thanks? (Ice Breaker – O’Violet J. Oree)
There are many stories in the scriptures that describe several who have been healed, delivered, and set on the path of righteousness. Are you familiar with their stories?

Conference in Charleston, SC at the Plaza Hotel on Goer Drive in North Charleston. Our theme was “Journey With the Lord.” Our lives have really taken us on a journey and it was encouraging to hear others talk about their experiences and share lessons learned.
On Friday night there was singing, poetry, eating and a word from Mrs. Oree, founder of P.A.T.T., who welcomed us to the beginning of this glorious P.A.T.T. Conference. New faces and new energy filled the room. We were able to take a journey back to the beginning of P.A.T.T. and see how the Lord had brought us over the past years. On Saturday our workshops were informative and inspiring as the ladies shared great insight and wisdom with us. You could feel the presence of the Lord in the midst. Deborah Dawson talked about taking Joy On Our Journey, Montreal Ravenel shared Living With Purpose, Evangelist Mary Everett spoke on A Journey Through the Steps of Jesus, Lorrie Lawrence highlighted aspects of Dealing With the Journey, and O’Violet J. Oree talked about Journeying With the Lord: The Invisible Woman. These ladies had themselves together and it seemed like fire came down from heaven and burned up everything negative in our lives. Deliverance was felt in us as the presenters let the Lord use them. We had two guest groups to sing for us during the Saturday evening banquet. Faye Hanton and a group of women from her church sang two inspirational songs. Megan Middleton, Fran, and a friend were three young women with such anointed voices. Their harmony was so rich and melodious. It was like angels singing and a heavenly presence engulfed all of us. Our banquet speaker was Sharon Grier of Charlotte, N.C. She put the icing on the cake as she spoke about doing the W.O.R.K. that it takes to pull us from an unhealthy journey, physically and emotionally, to a place of journeying on with balance and wholeness in our lives. That wrapped up the conference and we had an awesome time as always because the presence of the Lord was there. March 14, 2014 marked our first PATT Conference to be held in Charleston, SC. We were at the Inn Place Hotel on Goer Drive of North Charleston, SC. It was amazing. It seems like we plan the conference and put it together, but the mood and the environment is all God’s doing. Each time we have these conferences God just shows up in such wonderful ways. Our theme last year was Dealing With Women’s Issues. You know we have issues, but there is not one of them that God cannot help us handle or resolve.
