A new-look website for a new-look conference!
On behalf of the REACH WOMEN Conference Committee, it’s my awesome privilege to officially welcome you to our new website!
We are so grateful to God for the ongoing opportunity that we have to REACH WOMEN in Cape Town for Jesus, through this annual conference.
The REACH WOMEN conference has a long history. It was born many years ago, had a necessary make-over pre-COVID and now, in the wake of COVID, we find ourselves needing to assess it again.
Part of that assessment, has been to look at the sustainability of the conference.
With the increased cost of living in South Africa, the ticket price of the conference is an ongoing challenge.
We are also mindful of the human cost that running a conference of this size requires. The conference is run by a group of passionate women who give their time and expertise, aside from their other life commitments.
So, in light of these and other considerations, the 2023 conference will bring some necessary and exciting changes.
Ticket Price
We have managed to reduce the ticket price to R60. This price does not reflect the “market value” of the conference (which is much greater), but rather our commitment to REACH WOMEN across the economic spectrum.
The reduced price is low this year, because we will no longer be including some of the standard “frills” such as goodie bags, lunch etc.
Instead, we are focussing on the conference content with tea/coffee, a delicious cookie and a bottle of water included in the price. We are also absorbing the ticket booking commission into the R60.
Ticket Booking System
Speaking of ticket booking commission, we are moving away from our “in house” booking system and instead using QUICKET.
QUICKET is an online booking system which provides us with everything we need, is easy to navigate and allows individuals to book a ticket easily from a smart-phone or computer.
QUICKET is a well known booking platform for events of all sizes, and so we’re grateful that we can access this platform for the REACH WOMEN Conference this year.
Spiritual Nourishment
To keep the ticket price down, as I mentioned, we’ll not be serving food or supplying a goodie bag … but rather focussing on the spiritual nourishment provided in the two sessions at the conference.
We’re so excited to have JO TAYLOR as our 2023 conference speaker. She’ll be speaking to us from the book of Habakkuk.
We really hope to see you at the REACH WOMEN Conference.
Please join me and the RWC Committee in praying for a wonderful time of connection, growth and encouragement as we meet together in August!
