Empowering Ministry Leaders to
Disciple Women Through Trauma

About The Conference

Are you a pastor’s wife, women’s ministry leader, small group facilitator, counselor, or church volunteer passionate about bringing Christ-centered hope to women in your community? The Sanctuary in Trauma (SiT) Empowered by Hope Conference is designed to equip and inspire women in leadership to:

  • Create safe spaces for healing and renewal within their churches and circles of influence.
  • Implement SiT’s transformative resources in their churches and communities.
  • Lead others toward Christ-centered recovery and hope after and during trauma.

Together, we’ll explore how you can champion trauma-informed care and spark meaningful change in the lives of women facing trauma.

“SIT has been a wonderful asset to our church ministry as it has given us an opportunity to comfort women in need. Our partnership has provided a safe place for women to be ministered to with Biblical principles that they can apply to their life and be provided with hope that only God’s Word can give.”

-Pastor Vince Vasquez at Harvest New Beginnings
