AFTERNOON WORKSHOPS
WORKSHOP A
Authentic Womanhood
Discovering your biblical identity and authority
by Deborah Ong
The clarion call of the Holy Spirit for women is to rise to her identity, position and authority in the church, home and marketplace. This call is cemented when she understands and embraces what the Spirit and the Bible say about her. There is no contradiction between the Spirit and the Bible regarding the person and position of women. Instead they are in agreement with what Genesis and Jesus have declared about her. Come embark on a personal journey of discovery and empowerment!

WORKSHOP B
Free to be Me
Authenticity in the Workplace
by Belinda Tay
The workplace can be a hotbed of stress, negativity and rivalry, which often bring out the worst in us. This becomes a test of our identity in Christ, and when our identity is shaken, we cower in shame. But by facing our shame and the lies that have bound us, we can grow in our authenticity, wholeness and witness.
Belinda Tay has 30 years of experience in the public service. Belinda began her career as an executive officer in Singapore Tourist Promotion Board. After 14 years of destination marketing, she made a mid-career transition to the diplomatic community by joining the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Belinda retired in 2013, and has continued to share her work experiences in diplomatic protocol, by training government officials and international relations specialists in private sector organisations.
WORKSHOP C
God’s Rest-aurant
Resting, Feasting & Enjoying time with the Master
by Esther Tzer-Wong
This workshop does exactly what it says! It is about finding rest from the pressures from all sides: The harsh critic within, the expectations of others, and more. Instead of running around everywhere looking for answers, the solution is right where you are: Resting in the presence of the One who loves you the most. Featuring guided meditation and centering prayer based on God’s invitation for us to feast, and to ‘eat’ and ‘drink’ Christ, this experiential workshop will provide a safe space for you to enter into rest and receive God’s love more deeply.
Esther Tzer-Wong is a veteran counsellor with a wealth of insight and a deep well of sensitivity that comes from years of working with individuals, couples and families on their journey from emotional pain, trauma and abuse, to emotional wholeness. Today, she is a Senior Lecturer at TCA College, where she equips pastors and leaders to become professional clinical counsellors through its Post-Graduate Diploma as well as M.A in Counselling programs.
WORKSHOP D
Encountering Turbulence
Journeying through life’s unexpected transitions
by Joan Swee
In various seasons of life, women may experience unwelcome transitions such as bereavement, retrenchment, empty nest syndrome, divorce and such. Unwelcome transitions almost always involve some kind of grief – for example, over a loss of companionship, stability or freedom. Based on the Grief Recovery Method, this workshop will provide a framework for managing transitions, processing your emotions, overcoming grief, and moving beyond loss. The process will be illustrated by the real-life experiences of women who have been through – and grown through – loss.
Joan Swee was thrust into the arena of grief recovery by the loss of her husband when she was aged 35, with two young sons under the age of eight. For more than 20 years, she has supported women in their twenties to seniors in their 70s in their journey, and facilitated grief recovery weekends. Having been a corporate trainer for many years, she is now a certified specialist with the US-based Grief Recovery Institute, a certified coach, and holds a Master of Science in Professional Counselling.
