Welcome to something new and special – RISEtogether! This is a women’s day conference, different from our Yearly National Conference hosted at The Runway, Christchurch but one where we are on the road and travelling to somewhere new - in this case it’s London!
The theme for this particular RISEtogether conference is ‘For such a time as this…’
Join us as we come to Everyday Church in Wimbledon, where we will focus on meaning of purpose, found in the book of Esther, and discover more that You have been designed with purpose for purpose.
Book in for a day saturated in prayer, worship, preaches, response, reflection times and more.. this is one not to be missed!
We’re thrilled to announce our speakers for the event: Jo Lee, Leader and Founder of RISE, and Aminah Boot—both from GodFirst in Christchurch. Together, they’ll guide us through the book of Esther, exploring how she found the courage to step up and step into her purpose by trusting in God.
As we journey through Esther’s story, we’ll be inspired to step boldly into our own purpose, confident that God is with us and that we too have been called for such a time as this!
Don’t miss out get booked in!
Early Bird £25 - closing date 30th September
Full Price £30 - closing date 20th November
Speakers
Jo Lee
Jo has the joy and privilege of leading the RISE Women’s Ministry, alongside an incredible team. She has been married to her amazing husband, Duncan, for over 25 years, and they have three grown-up children and two wonderfully chaotic cats. They have called Christchurch home for the past 17 years, where they serve at their local church, GodFirst.
For many years, Jo believed the lie that she was insignificant and that her voice didn’t matter—until God radically transformed her thinking. It was through that transformation that her passion was ignited: to see women set free by the truth of who they’ve been created to be. Because when women know their true identity in Christ and walk in it, they change the world.
Jo is so excited for the first RISEtogether conference in London this November! Her heart comes alive seeing women encounter Jesus, break free from what holds them back, and rise into the calling placed on their lives—for such a time as this.
Aminah Boot
Aminah Boot is a devoted wife and mother, happily married to her wonderful husband, Greg, for over 25 incredible years. Together, they are proud parents to three amazing boys. Born in Kenya, East Africa, into a Muslim family, Aminah's life took a transformative turn at the age of 12 when she encountered Jesus. Captivated by His love, she fell deeply in love with Him, and discovering the Father's love as the King's daughter changed her life forever.
Aminah is passionate about empowering others, focusing on three main areas:
Walking with Women: She enjoys journeying alongside women, helping them embrace God's Word and fulfill their divine calling.
Prayer: Aminah is dedicated to harnessing the power of prayer and encouraging others to do the same, believing that God will perform remarkable things in every area of life.
Family Support: She takes pleasure in supporting families as they discover God's abundance in their purpose, relationships, and daily life.
In her free time, Aminah can be found taking leisurely walks, whipping up delicious meals in the kitchen, grooving to music, or catching up with friends over a cup of tea. She is grateful for the opportunity to connect and share life's journey with like-minded individuals.
