THE NORTH WEST CHRISTIAN WOMEN'S CONFERENCE

About Us.

New Life 2026.

SATURDAY 12 SEPTEMBER, 2026

9:30am - 3:30pm

'William Cowper Campus', Calrossy Anglican School | Tamworth

Join us at New Life 2026 as Jocelyn Bignall opens the book of Lamentations and helps us discover how God meets us in our deepest grief and sorrow.

In seasons of pain and heartbreak, it can often feel as though God is distant or unaware of our suffering. Yet throughout Scripture, God invites His people to bring their sadness, questions, and struggles honestly before Him.

Together, we’ll explore the practice of lament - learning how God draws near to us in our darkest moments and offers hope in the midst of sorrow.

Come and be encouraged by the truth that we are never alone in our suffering, and that even in grief, God remains faithful and near.

Registration.

Opens Saturday 4th July 2026

Our 2026 Speaker.

Jocelyn Bignall

Jocelyn is Assistant Minister at All Saints Petersham and doting owner of her dog, Angus. She loves nothing more than spending time with friends and family, long walks, pottering around at home doing craft and cooking and has a passion for helping God’s people dig deep into His Word and draw out truths that change and shape their lives.

"As a mum with little ones, I'm so excited to spend a whole uninterrupted day studying and learning God's word. And the atmosphere and energy of New Life is unlike anything else. The feeling you get being in a room surrounded by so many other Christian women is so powerful."

Meet Susanne, one of our New Life women.

Susanne says: “I cling to hope on a daily basis, because the state of the world tempts me to worry about the future. We see so much going so wrong, so constantly. But when I lift my eyes, I see my Heavenly Father with His arms open, because He has adopted me as His own through Jesus’ death on the cross. That unfailing love gives me a strong foundation for a hopeful and secure eternal life. I’m looking forward to learning more at the conference so that I can deepen my faith and understanding, and go forward with my hope grounded in the assurance of God’s promises, rather than trying to find peace in worldly hope, which is so often uncertain. It’s definitely a much better way to look to the future.”

Isn’t it so encouraging to hear from other Christian women. Join Susanne and women from all around the New England and North West as we sit under God’s word together to grow and be encouraged at New Life 2024.

Only a few last-minute ticket left, registration closes Sunday.

🎵 Our 2024 playlist is here! 🎵 It includes our 2024 conference set-list and others to praise our great God and get excited for New Life!

Join us in prayer for New Life 2024. 🙏 Pray for the speakers, team, volunteers, the attendees, and that God’s word will deeply impact all who come.

Meet Ruth, one of our New Life women.

Ruth says: “I have been to a number of New Life Conferences. Each year I look forward to meeting my old friends from different places. It is like a mini reunion. I also love meeting and connecting with Christian women from my town. The music and talks are wonderful and the personal stories are inspiring. This year’s theme is one that I know will encourage me in my Christian walk. We all go through some challenging times and experience suffering. So knowing God’s great love, we also know we have a future hope. I am looking forward to being part of New Life again this year.”

We’re thrilled to see Ruth at New Life this year.

Romans 8:39 - ‘Neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God.’ ♥️

#Encouragement #Romans8 #NewLifeConference24

Jo Clark shares what she’s most looking forward to at New Life 2024. Hear her heart for Romans 8 and Christian women.
“God loves it when we mature each other – he wants every single member of his family to get involved in growing each other up! I love the moment when I’m alongside sisters in Christ, we have our heads down in the Scriptures, and then through prayer and conversation, we help each other to understand and apply God’s word to our lives.

I’m confident God is going to be at work at the New Life Conference. He’s revealed himself to us, and by his Spirit and his word, we will come to know him better! During the sessions, and as we sing, pray and talk, we will be teaching, correcting, rebuking and training each other in righteousness, won’t we? I’m looking forward to working through the text of Romans 8 and going deep in such an iconic chapter of the Bible. I’m confident God will bless us all through this special day!”

#Testimonial #NewLifeConference24

Meet Janelle, one of our New Life women.

Janelle says: “As soon as it was announced at last year’s New Life Conference that the 2024 passage for study was to be Romans 8, I was determined to be there. My husband and I have known - as I’m sure most people our age have known - some tragic happenings and disappointments in our lives, but in Romans 8 Paul somehow touches deeply into our sorrows and fears and gives reassurance in the hope that we have as Christians. Romans 8 in some way is able to reach me right where I am.”

What an encouragement to hear the hope of the gospel for Janelle! Register today to join Janelle and hundreds of other women from around the New England & North West at New Life 2024. Standard registration closes August 18.
