The 17th annual weekend for Kairos Outside for Women (KOW) will be held at Greenhills Conference Centre, near the Cotter River, on 12-14 August. KOW is a Christian ministry for women who have been impacted by having someone close to them who has spent time in jail. These may be mothers or sisters, wives, girlfriends or daughters, and each of them has struggled with what this has meant for their family. A large team of women from many different Christian churches in our region will be there to facilitate the program and to support the guests with prayer, love and thoughtful listening. This year, Margaret Reeson from GUC is a member of the team and will be happy to talk to you about it.
You can be part of this, too:
- pray for the team and for the guests during the weekend. There are still a few spaces in the Prayer Vigil list. Or pray at a time that suits you.
- donations are always gratefully received. Guests do not pay for their weekend away. Donate via secure website and specify that the donation is for KOW Canberra Monaro.
- it is still not too late to suggest this program to a potential guest, but do act quickly if someone comes to your mind.
