Australian Church Women Inc. (ACW) is a national ecumenical body of Christian women who meet during the year, to give thanks and praise to God with song and prayer. For 60 years, ACW has worked to promote peace, understanding and unity through faithful service.
Here in Mackay, Australian Church Women has been an active part of our community since the early 1970s. This year, we warmly invite all to attend our annual Fellowship Day Service on Friday, 25th July at 10:00 am, to be held at Iona West Uniting Church, Brook Street, West Mackay.
The theme for 2025 is "Be Not Afraid – Celebrating God’s Guidance."
We will gather in joyful worship, celebrating the peace and assurance that comes from trusting in God's grace.
Offerings received during Fellowship Day Services held around the country will go towards the Winifred Kiek Memorial Scholarship. Named in honour of Rev. Winifred Kiek, the first woman ordained in Australia, this scholarship supports Christian women from Asian Church Women’s Conference member countries, multicultural Australia, and Pacific Island nations.
The scholarship assists with supplementary training or further study in theology or related fields. This year’s recipients are from the Solomon Islands and Papua New Guinea.
Please join us as we celebrate the joy, peace and happiness that come from sharing God’s love together.
