The spring staging of the one day Power of Praise & Worship will debut in the Houston market at Woodland, Texas Saturday, April 12th. Location will be Fellowship of the Woodlands Church. Atlanta will host the event on April 26th at the Mount Paran Church of God. Additional ‘08 conference dates are being set.

Central to the heart of the seminar will be four unique teaching sessions by Stormie Omartian, based on her best selling 'Power Of Praying' book series. Sessions will include: The Power Of Prayer To Transform Your Life; The Power Of Prayer To Transform Your Relationships; The Prayer That Gets You Through Tough Times; The Prayer That Changes Everything. The event will be presented in morning and afternoon sessions.

Supporting the teaching will be a strong emphasis on worship and an equally strong line-up of ‘praise and worship based’ ministry. Musical content for the event will be under the direction of Ms. Omartian’s husband, Grammy Award winning producer, Michael Omartian. Praise and worship artists/speakers will include Jennifer & Jeromy Deibler of Dove Award winning Christian band FFH, nationally known worship leader, Roz Thompson, gifted singer Debi Selby, new artist Lara Landon, and Prelude—contemporary all girl worship group featuring the Omartian’s daughter, Amanda.

Communicating with genuine, infectious warmth and from the depths of a wealth of spiritual experience, Stormie Omartian powerfully and profoundly connects with readers and listeners on the subject of prayer.

Her groundbreaking book, The Power of A Praying Wife, broke a 21 year Christian publishing industry record by claiming the #1 spot on the Christian Booksellers list for a remarkable 27 months. It has been continually on the bestseller list for the last five years—followed closely in popularity by her Gold Medallion Award winning books The Power Of A Praying Husband, and The Power of A Praying Parent.

The beloved author is enthusiastic about the opportunity the The Power Of Prayer & Worship Seminar will present. She noted from her home in Franklin, Tennessee: “This will be a very unique event—the only one of its’ kind to my knowledge—as it is totally focused on the power of prayer. We will be be teaching people not only how to pray so that their prayers are maximized, but how to more effectively communicate personally with God, and how to live in a manner to see prayer answered.”

Characteristic of the outreach of her books, she believes this is a conference that has something for not only women--but for virtually everyone desiring a deeper spiritual insight and closer relationship with God. “I urge anyone who has friends or acquaintances that don’t know the Lord to come and bring these friends,” she notes, adding: “We have seen so many people come to know God personally, we’ve again and again seen spiritual walls come down and healing and restoration take place! So many lives will be changed in just one short day!”
