FAQS
Who is bloom for?
Bloom is for all women who are high school age and up, no matter where they are on their spiritual journey.
Is there a ticket fee for bloom?
Our heart is to bring world-class Christian speakers to Bloom so that women in the Capital Region and across the Northeast can be encouraged and strengthened in their faith. Starpoint Church continues to cover many of the event expenses, including travel, lodging, and meals for our guest speaker. The ticket fee helps offset the speaker’s honorarium and allows us to keep Bloom sustainable for years to come. We work hard to keep this cost as low as possible so that every woman has the opportunity to attend.
What is bloom?
Bloom is a worship gathering for the women of the Capital District of NY held twice a year. Hosted by Maryanna Lilly and The Bloom Team, these gatherings are an extension of what Jesus is doing in and through Starpoint Church.
We believe God is doing something very special in uniting the local churches as the body of Christ to encourage one another in our relationships with Jesus and one another!
You are invited to come, rest, worship, learn, connect with other women and with Jesus! Together we will BLOOM!
