Every year the Victorian Conference Women's Ministries holds an annual Retreat which allows the members of our congregations to connect with one another.
This year's retreat will be held from Friday night 30 July until Sunday afternoon 1 August
It is being held at the same place as last year, set in picturesque Mt Eliza on the Mornington Peninsula and overlooking Port Phillip Bay at Camp Manyung.
Theme of the retreat: Portraits of Faith
Our guest speaker will be: Alicia Patterson from USA
She has been employed as both, a teacher and pastor, but her current official focus is raising her four wonderful children and supporting her husband, Geoff, in his pastoral ministry.
Alicia is also an inspirational speaker, writer, and business woman.
She holds a BA in English Literature and an MA in Religion.
Her greatest joy is found in connecting people to Jesus so He can bring healing to wounds and replace Satan’s lies with His truth; positioning people to be able to hear God speak His great and tender love to them and reveal to them their identity and destiny; and, encouraging people as they become free to growinto their God-given identity.
Women's Ministries is a place to address the spiritual, emotional, physical and social needs of women in the church.
Women’s Ministries encourages women to improve their potential and participation in the mission of the Church.
It is a support system for hurting women—whether they are suffering from divorce, abuse or simply loneliness.
It encourages women to become involved in all areas of ministry in their church, their community, and in their home.
It mentors young women so that they may find joy in the Lord.
Women’s Ministries recognizes that women have many gifts of the Spirit and attempts to help women discover and use these.
