Inspirational and uplifting weekend – plenty of food for thought! Comes highly recommended and I will spread the word. Can’t wait until the next one! 🙂I wanted to let you know that once again you provided a wonderful weekend: the hotel, staff and food were of as high a standard as last year.
The worship band were great, and so lovely to see young people on fire… The speakers were inspirational, not only Laurence and his daughter, but the Activate team members who spoke, were fantastic, speaking from their hearts with honesty, which is such an encouragement to us all.The ‘Easy like Sunday Morning’ craft, creative, event flowed so naturally into talking about church as it is meant to be. Lots of great seminars, hundreds of helpful conversations with new friends and old. Thank you, everyone!
We look forward to celebrating the last five decades of women like you ‘getting out there’ and sharing God’s love in natural, meaningful ways. Standing on the shoulders of (female!) giants we can equip ourselves for today and for the future. Isaiah 43:19 – our theme verse for the weekend – says, ‘I am about to do something brand new’. Be part of it! Don’t let this opportunity pass you by – get a group of women from your church together and come along. We really appreciate our fantastic group coordinators who do this every year. And don’t forget, money towards the weekend would make the perfect Christmas present for the ladies in your life! Click here to go to our registration and booking form. See you soon!
