While we continue to operate with Zoe training and wait for charity status (still nothing, our lawyer will be looking into it), we are so excited to begin our promotional campaign for our very first She Is... conference!
Zoe will be sponsoring and running this conference with the help of two amazing churches, Summit Church and The Bridge. With their teams coming, our Zoe volunteers will be able to participate and enjoy this amazing event. They will also get a chance to see it in action before beginning to take the lead on running it in coming years.
She Is... will be a conference designed for women who want to learn more about identity and how God can give shape and meaning to our stories. We will also be talking about how we can become free from shame and that it does not dictate how our next chapters play out. We'll have more details for you soon, but for now please be in prayer that our social media and email campaigns have a far and effect reach in building anticipation! Check out the teaser video below!
Thank you for all your prayers and support. We're in this together!

Belfast Bound
Katy and some ladies from our home church here, Open Arms Church, went to a pastoral care course recently. They had a great time road-tripping to Belfast and spending a couple days together laughing and learning about pastoral care and counseling.
Not only is it important to get away with people we’re on mission with, but it’s also important to continue developing ourselves. Katy picked up several new exercises to incorporate into Zoe Training, she made valuable connections and relationships, and she grew closer to ladies in our church family.
Thank you for all your prayers and support. We’re so grateful for each and every one of you!
Drogheda Team
Just to save you some time…Drogheda is pronounced “draw-heh-duh”. It is a nice little city about an hour north of Dublin where we have some amazing volunteers who have been involved from early days of Zoe Community. With a few new ladies from there going through our training process, we planned a training day in our Drogheda location. In the pic you see them gathered in our Zoe location there. It was a great day as Katy led the training then went to lunch all together.
We value the time and energy they give towards Zoe Community. But most of all, we value the relationships we build through the process. We’re all on the journey together. You are united with these ladies to see God do something great in Ireland. Thank you!
