Meeting Mary Joy

There’s something special (and slightly surreal) about meeting the girl who has only been a photo on your fridge, and with whom you’ve exchanged words and prayers only through letters.

We are so excited to announce our incredible line up of speakers for 2023!

Petra has been a voice of influence in Aotearoa since the 90's, and while her hairstyle has changed, her positivity and charismatic communication certainly hasn’t. Petra brings a wealth of real life experience to the table having navigated the turbulent world of media, balancing the challenges of family life and career, through to partnering with powerful organisations of change both locally and globally. Always engaging, sometimes irreverent, Petra speaks her mind with purpose, clarity and soul.

Talk topic: "Comfortable in my own skin"

Audrey is a singer songwriter, youth worker and spoken word artist passionate about using the arts to bring the reality of God to our world. Writing her first ever piece when she was seven; Audrey now uses her love for literature and public speaking to share her story.

Talk topic: "The temple within"

Kelly is a long-time member of Eastgate, a Church Relationship Manager at Tearfund New Zealand and proud Mama of two teenage boys. Having recently returned from the slums of Indonesia, Kelly brings to life three incredibly profound stories of hope amidst poverty and a powerful tale of the resilience of three women she’ll never forget, interwoven with the stories of women who have empowered her through life. Kelly’s passion to advocate for the littlest members of our world will both move and inspire you.

Talk topic: "The women I want you to meet"
