1:00 – 2:00 Keynote Speaker:  Judy Hehr

Judy is a dynamic Catholic speaker, podcast host, author, and development coach. She believes in the godliness and grace that lies with each of us. She dispels lies and uncovers TRUTH while empowering listeners to get past the past and receive the love and mercy God has in abundance for all of us. She wants for all to believe in the resurrection power of Jesus. Her style has been described as enlightening, engaging, entertaining, edifying and heartbreaking. She uses her sense of humor and real struggles from her personal life to connect theology to daily reality. The power behind her life journey will expand your self-awareness, remind you of Gods infinite love for you, helping her audiences rekindle their love for Christ and his mother while encouraging a personal relationship with God.  Judy was a Keynote Speaker at the 2016 NCCW National Convention in Indianapolis.
