Who is EQUIP ministry wives for for?

EQUIP ministry wives is for women married to anyone in any kind of paid gospel ministry in Australia or overseas (full time or part time). It is a non-denominational conference aimed to encourage the wives of those in ministry. These ministries can include congregational ministry, student ministry, chaplaincy - any role where people are paid in ministry.

Theme

Identity is the word of the decade. Identity Politics, My Identity, and even Identity in Christ. It's what makes us what we are, and what makes us different to others. What does the bible say about identity, and how does it affect us as ministry wives? How does it challenge the way we think? How does it challenge the way we should act and relate? How does it help us?!

This is the topic of our decade that we need to get right.
