Arise Women's Conference

Word of Faith invites all women to an inspirational weekend complimented with a pop-up beauty salon, food trucks, stalls, a second-hand shop, delicious coffee, an Indian cuisine restaurant, inspirational talks, practical breakaway sessions and time with your girlfriends.

This year the Arise conference boasts a Q & A session on sensitive women’s health topics such as the M Cup, menopause, depression and digital breast screening with local nurses and experts from Schuin Villa Pharmacy, a talk about financial skills with Momentum regional manager, Alice Selokoma, and a cooking class with local chef, Sandhir Orie.

In addition, attendees stand the chance of winning a weekend for two at the 5-star Kuzuko Lodge to the value of R14600, jewellery from Havilah Designer Jewellers and a R3000 cash prize from Charl Lötter of CB Estates.

Proceeds from the Arise second-hand shop will go toward non-profit organisation, Project Hope. Women attending can also ‘Adopt a Girl’ from the organisation by providing her with a toiletry bag, her upcoming camp fee, or a notebook and pen. Upon adopting a girl, attendees receive her name, age and a letter she has written to her benefactor.

“At Arise we want to enable and equip women to go back to their homes and neighbourhoods as agents of positive life change with an ‘I can’ that will last,” says founder and host, Mariana Crompton.
