Welcome to the Alabaster Box Women’s Conference web site.  ABWC has two main objectives--educate women and girls about health (mind, body & spirit) and help them to stay healthy.  You will find on this website a calendar for women's events, a speaker's bureau, a health column with up to date new releases and articles, and an events page. We are growing so come back and visit often to see what's new for you!

The Alabaster Box

The story in the Book of Luke chapter seven about the woman with the alabaster box is one of the finest renditions of Christ’s acceptance of women in ministry that the Bible records. Although Christ defined the woman’s act as preparation for His burial, in fact, it was her sins, her pride and her past that was being put to death. She laid it all at the feet of Jesus and never took it up again. Not only is her story included here, but she was the first to witness His resurrection. She believed enough to pour out the costly oil on His feet. She believed enough to wipe His feet with her hair. She believed enough to leave her history behind and take up her new life in Christ Jesus. May her story become your story as you pour your oil out for Him.

What is our oil?

It is something that claims all of your time and attention yet brings you no satisfaction. Our oil may be hidden in the wrappings of a successful profession or a marriage that appears picture perfect. Other than Christ, you are the only one who knows what your oil is and what it cost you to obtain it. But once you make that decision to pour it out, the fragrance of your oil will fill the world around you. Are you ready to be exposed?

 

A woman's health is often the most neglected area of her life. Demands on women have increased even more so in the 21st century as women are often head of household, caregivers for children and senior parents as well as a roles of leadership in the marketplace.

 

Luke 7:36-38

Then one of the Pharisees asked Him to eat with him. And He went to the Pharisee's house, and sat down to eat. And behold, a woman in the city who was a sinner, when she knew that Jesus sat at the table in the Pharisee's house, brought an alabaster flask of fragrant oil, 38-and stood at His feet behind Him weeping; and she began to wash His feet with her tears, and wiped them with the hair of her head; and she kissed His feet and anointed them with the fragrant oil.
