We believe there is something powerful that happens when women gather together in the presence of God, when hearts are open, walls come down, and faith is stirred.
‘She Is’ exists to create space for that. Space to encounter God, to be seen and known, to build real friendships that outlast the weekend, and to be refreshed in a season that may have felt heavy, busy, or dry.
This gathering is for every woman, whatever stage of life she’s in, whatever she’s carrying, whatever she’s hoping for. It’s for the woman who’s been part of the church for years and the woman who’s never set foot in it before. It’s for mums, daughters, sisters, friends, and every woman, God has placed on our hearts to invite.
Our prayer is simple, that every woman who walks through the doors would leave knowing who she is in Christ, renewed, encouraged, and filled with fresh faith for all God has ahead.

Women’s Conference will be held across Friday 18 September and Saturday 19 September at Sanctuary Church, 75 Tanawha Tourist Drive, Mons, Queensland.
We love families and cherish every generation of our church. For this conference, however, we’ve intentionally created a space for women to step away from the demands of everyday life and spend dedicated, uninterrupted time in God’s presence.
Our prayer is that every woman leaves feeling refreshed, encouraged, and spiritually renewed. To help make this possible, we ask that children not attend the conference sessions. We’ve also designed the Saturday schedule to allow time to enjoy the day with your family before gathering together for the evening sessions.
We hope you’ll be able to make the most of this opportunity, and we can’t wait to welcome you.
The conference includes four powerful sessions, check in will open 1 hour prior to the below session times:
Friday 18 September
Session 1 | 6:30 PM
Saturday 19 September
Session 2 | 2:00 PM
Session 3 | 4:00 PM
Session 4 | 6:30 PM
