Palin made her remarks at the Women of Joy Christian women's conference held at State Fair Park in Oklahoma City. The event, sponsored by Phil Waldrep Ministries based in Trinity, Ala., drew more than 9,000 women to the Jim Norick State Fair Arena.
Waldrep, an evangelist, is host of the syndicated "Living With Joy" radio show. At the beginning of Friday's session, Waldrep welcomed Gov. Mary Fallin to the stage by saying she was the first sitting governor to attend one of his conferences.Fallin received a standing ovation as she gave a short welcome to conference participants and expressed her excitement about Palin's coming presentation.
"You talk about a woman who knows how to plant her feet firmly in the Word of God and to keep standing no matter what happens," Fallin said of Palin.
Love,
