This year’s topic

At the Women’s Christian Convention we will look at the encounters Jesus had with people, as recorded in Mark’s gospel.

Come and explore the life-changing hope found in Jesus – the one who is willing and able to free us from suffering and death. Discover the radical welcome at his table for all who come in humility and trust. And see how true greatness is redefined through the way of the cross, not the pursuit of status. 

Come and join us this year, as we learn from God’s Word together.
