Key Note Speakers
Irene Gleeson: From a life of poverty and despair, Irene has emerged as one of Australia's gutsiest missionaries, bringing life and hope to the destitute in war-torn Uganda. In 1991, she heard the call of the Lord and moved from Sydney's Northern Beaches to Kitgum, Uganda. From the early days teaching 20 children to write their name in the dust and to sing songs of praise to Jesus, Childcare Kitgum Servants now operates an 18 acre sanctuary to which 4,000 orphans come each day for free schooling, meals and medicine, and to learn vocational skills to rebuild their future. In 2005 a 60 bed AIDS Hospice was opened in order to free children from the impossible burden of caring for dying relatives. As she sees her community, Irene dares to dream that God will enable her to rescue thousands more. Irene joins us, straight off the plane from Kitgum, bursting to share her love for Jesus and her mission to save women and children in His name.
Sheralyn Bucknell: After successfully leading and teaching the women of Pittwater Uniting Church at their annual retreat earlier this year, Sheralyn returns to share her wisdom and her unique walk with God. Sheralyn is well known and highly regarded on the Northern Beaches as a leader, teacher and role model. She has three children and along with her husband has planted a church in Los Angeles, California. Sheralyn will explore with us how we can more effectively mobilise our lives within the Body of Christ. Her casual and witty style is sure to inspire, entertain and challenge us.
Special Guests: From the ruins of post-war Darmstadt in Germany, a small group of faithful believers built a tiny brick chapel with their very own hands as a statement of faith and reconciliation for a guilt-ridden land. In 1961, a guesthouse was opened in Jerusalem, for holocaust survivors. In 1979, the group set out from Germany to establish a sanctuary of worship and prayer in Australia, choosing Theresa Park, NSW as the place where people can experience God's comfort and come to know Him more deeply. We are truly delighted to welcome these amazing ladies of faith and to hear what God has done in their lives and ministry as they demonstrate a daily choice to live by faith, and not by sight.
Electives
Free to Worship: Sonja Howard leads the Dance Ministry at Pittwater Uniting Church. She has a passion for reclaiming dance for Christ so that His girls can be truly free in His presence and worship Him with abandon! In the Free Worship elective we will learn about Sonja's vision and, together with her team, experience an "eyes closed, open to God" style of worship.
Devoted to Prayer: Our special guest speakers join us for a more intimate and practical session on prayer and meditation. If you've ever longed for a more fruitful prayer life and a deeper communion with Christ in the everyday, this practical and informative elective is perfect for you.
Women Mentoring Women: Have you ever wanted wise Christian counsel or the experience of more mature Christian "mums"? Have you ever thought about sharing the experience of your years with one younger than yourself, or wanted to prevent others from learning life's lessons the hard way? If you can answer "yes" to any of these questions then you'll love this elective! This year we launch our inaugural Cross Denominational Women's Mentoring Programme. Come and learn more about mentoring and being mentored and register your interest in one of the first programmes of its kind in Sydney.
Faithbuilders: So often, the lives of ordinary women can inspire and encourage us to step out into new areas of serving God and His people. The Faithbuilders elective is brought to us by women who have stepped out into short term mission work, both here and overseas and have amazing stories to tell. We will not leave unchanged as we hear the testimonies of faith, perseverance and trust from our sisters in Christ.
