		<description><![CDATA[We are excited to let you know that The Entrance Baptist Church, will be a venue to watch the live video stream of the Sydney Women’s Conference called Equip Women, on Saturday the 19th of May.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a>Equip Women</a>, is on<strong> Saturday the 19th of May</strong>, in Darling Harbour but we now have 2 options of how to be involved.</p>
<p>You could go along and enjoy the day and share fellowship with the 4000 women who <strong>attend at Darling Harbour Convention Centre</strong> (click here to<a href="https://www.eiseverywhere.com/ereg/newreg.php?eventid=33655&amp;"> register</a> and you could contact <a href="http://thelakes.net.au/2012/01/30/david-sheath/">Ruth</a> if you would like to travel with someone from The Lakes)</p>
<p><strong>or you could watch the live video stream of the Conference at The Entrance Baptist Church</strong>.</p>
<p>The live streaming will allow you to see all aspects of the conference, from talks and interviews, to songs, prayer and the most popular elective topic.The aim is that women from the coast will be able to enjoy fellowship with each other and quality bible teaching at a fraction of the conference cost. The cost of the day is only $10.00 which covers the cost of live streaming, and lunch. To keep costs low we would like to ask ladies to bring a plate of something to share for morning tea if they are happy to. Registrations will open at 8:30 and the first talk will start at 9am. The day will finish at the end of the elective at 3:30pm.</p>
<p>You may download a postcard to invite others <a href="http://thelakes.net.au/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/Postcard-Equip.pdf" target="_blank">here</a>.</p>
<p>For further information or to register attendance please contact:</p>
<p>Jane Bolton:<a href="MailTo:jane@theentrancebaptist.org"> jane@theentrancebaptist.org</a> or via mobile on 0409 323 656</p>
