I learned that 16 and 17 year old girls can go too. I had always thought it was for 18 and up.

I know we need to be as well informed as possible as to what is going on about TOFW so that we can pass this on to everyone we come into contact with and show our enthusiasm.

Loved this video clip. It made me smile to remember so many of these presenters and their messages. I can't wait for all of the new ones that are coming to Springfield this year!

I never knew you could make a plea for a ticket if the TOFW event was sold out.

I was reminded how many hearts are touched by the Time Out for Women presenters by seeing the eyes of the women in this video. What a difference it can make!

I always thought that TOFW was for women 18 and older (RS aged women). I think that it is wonderful that TOFW is open to 16 & 17 year olds. I will make an extra effor to let people know that 16 & 17 year olds can attend as well.

I knew but was reminded that The Lord knows us well and the messages are personalized by him just for each women in her own circumstances. I love that. Jennie McLaws

What a great line-up of presenters - Mary Ellen Edmunds, Hilary Weeks - it's going to be a fun event. Also I can't believe Jericho Road is still around; I went to one of their concerts when I was a teenager!

I am reminded that this is a great event for the women in my area who usually feel isolated due to our huge stake boundaries. Springfield is right in their back yard (or as close as an even like this can be to them).

I didn't know that you could post on facebook to either try and get sold out tickets or try to sell yours if you can't attend. Great info!

What a bunch of great info! I am now signed up for the newsletter and am so excited to be a TOFW know-it-all! :) Watching the video made me remember the first time I went to TOFW. It was in Kansas City, MO 7 years ago. I went out to visit my grandparents and went to the event alone. And do you know what? It was THE BEST TOFW I've ever gone to! I was able to sit by myself and just immerse my whole being into the event. I cried and laughed and left a changed person. I felt the Lord's spirit so strongly and am looking forward to attending my 6th TOFW this year!!!

Ok, did everything on the list, whew!! LOL Sooo, the thing I learned from this exercise is that I am in fact in the 'secret group' on FB. I just never get any notifications... I liked the video clip and posted the link on my FB wall, so we will see : )

I learned that there were some people on Facebook that I haven't invited yet - so I sent out some more invites! I posted the video on Facebook too. Seeing it brought back lots of happy memories!
