Again this year, Cosmos Salon and Day Spa donated its services to do hairstyles and makeup for the fashion show at the Extraordinary Women’s Conference 2012, at Living Word Bible Church.
More than 2,000 participants attended the conference. “This is the 25th year the conference has been going on at Living Word Bible churches around the country,” according to Melody Whetstone, church mission and outreach coordinator. “It has been held every April at our Mesa church location since the year 2000. This year’s theme was Generation to Generation, so we concentrated more on the teen girls for some of the events.” Speakers included April Osteen Simons, sister of the renowned televangelist Joel Osteen, and church co-pastor Dr. Maureen Anderson.
“Giving back to the community is high on our priority list,” said Sandra Barbetta, salon co-owner with her husband, Cosmo. “We had a great time participating.”
Sandra, her daughter, Terese, and the rest of their style team created hairdos and makeup for church members and friends, who acted as models for new fashions presented by local shops.
