130 women from several churches across Essex gathered at Danbury Mission near Chelmsford on 12 March for their annual regional Women’s Conference.
Those who attended were challenged by teaching on ‘Loving Father, Son and Spirit’, from speaker Sharon James, author of God’s Design For Women and social analyst for the Christian Institute.
The conference provided an excellent opportunity to mingle with other local women, to learn, praise and pray with each other; it was encouraging to see women spurring other women on in their walk with Christ.
One woman from a local church in Chelmsford commented: ‘I really enjoyed the Women’s Conference this year, as in previous years. It is such a joy to meet with so many other women from the local area – particularly as I am from a smaller church – and to share in worshipping God together. It really feels that the conference meets its aim: to encourage women to love Jesus more.’
This is the third annual conference; the next will be held at Danbury Mission on Saturday 11 March 2017, when Sarah Bradley will be speaking on the topic of ‘Rooting Your Identity in Jesus’. It promises to be a great event.
