Join The Esther Collective residential 

A brand new discipleship event is taking place in July for women of all ages. Hosted by Girls’ Brigade Ministries, The Esther Collective Residential will be open to women both inside and outside of Girls’ Brigade

Esther Collective500So far, The Esther Collective has focused on the 18-30s generation and how, like Esther, they can discover their God-given identity and purpose ‘for such a time as this’ (Esther Ch.4:14). As a response to demand from women of all ages, this weekend will be the first Esther Collective event to be available to all women.

Women can come for the whole weekend, or grab an Esther Day Pass and join the group on the Saturday.

Join in for a refreshing weekend of workshops, retreat and discovery as you journey through the story of Esther alongside other women. The weekend will take place in the beautiful Peak District, and the group will have the opportunity to enjoy the surroundings during the weekend.

Charlotte Hendy, The Esther Collective Project Leader, said, ‘The story of Esther tells us that God has a plan and a purpose for our lives – no matter who we are or what background we come from.

'This is a message for all ages; you can never be too young or too old to discover that God has a purpose for you. We’re so excited for this opportunity to gather women of all ages to discover what God might be saying to them through the story of Esther today.’
 

The weekend will take place at Cliff College, Derbyshire, S32 3XG, from Thursday 20 July 2017 at 5pm until Sunday 23 July at 12pm (midday).

The weekend costs £250 including all food, accommodation and materials. An Esther Day Pass costs £25 and includes lunch and refreshments from 10am-4pm on Saturday 22 July.
