Girls Weekend Away at America’s Keswick

Friday, October 16 – 18, 2020

Have Your Faith, and Live it too!

We are not called to shy away from doing what is right, but rather live life with the certainty that God is in control and leave the details up to Him. We are to be holy…to pursue holiness…and not back away from it or avoid it. These sessions from 1 Peter are designed to help us want to indulge in holiness, by indulging in God Himself—His character, His blessing and His grace.

Weekend Speaker: Sherrie Holloway

Author and speaker, Sherrie Holloway, grew up in a home where going to church was “the norm.” Even though she went to church regularly, there is one particular Sunday night that stands out in her mind as a most important one. A singing group was visiting their church and it was that night she understood her need for a Savior. Though she had been a “good” child it was not enough for God’s standards. Only Jesus could take away her sin and give her the surety that she would be in heaven one day. That night Sherrie surrendered her heart to Jesus. Sherrie attended college at Clarks Summit University (formerly Baptist Bible College & Seminary, Clarks Summit, PA). It was there that God began to grow in her a passion for His Word. During her time studying one night, she was challenged to truly believe what she was studying. She determined that night to live her life entirely for God—no holds barred. Today she uses the words, “like crazy” to describe her passion for life.

Currently, Sherrie is a Professor in the Health and Human Performance department at Clarks Summit University. She is a teacher through and through and loves connecting with her students both in and out of the classroom. After finishing twenty years of coaching women’s basketball at CSU, she stepped away from coaching in 2007. “Athletics was a great avenue to help teach my girls about life. I was privileged to have had the opportunity to coach, and I stepped away because I believe God directed me in that path. I don’t know what He has in store, but I’m sure HE does.”

Sherrie enjoys reading, good coffee, good conversation (especially with the good coffee!), being outdoors in the summer, quiet times with God, music, and doing almost anything with good friends.
