The Hope Gathering Conference

At The Hope Gathering  2024 Women’s Conference we will look at how we are Chosen and Called. To be chosen is to be called! We are all called to bring unity in Christ, to live a life in service to others, like Jesus, to share the gospel, to be Light and Salt to our broken world, even in our brokenness. God in His omniscience, has a plan for each of us, a unique calling that we are meant to fulfill for His purposes, and he gives us the grace to accomplish it

Our hope is that all who attend will be encouraged by the Word, equipped for life and ministry, and engaged in worship and fellowship with women from all over the world.

What Does It Mean to Be Chosen & Called? 

"But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God's special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light."
1 Peter 2:9, NASB
