Agape Home Conference

“Daughters of the King” shared hope and love to current and former guests.

Agape Home hosted their first conference and rolled out the red carpet! Giving our guests the royal treatment, with delicious food, fellowship and encouragement. The theme was “Daughters of the King” and the ladies were blessed by multiple guest speakers who declared powerful testimonies, led interactive activities, and shared God’s heart.

Some graduates of Agape came back for the conference, and the ladies loved seeing other people who had found healing here at Agape.

Throughout the day, different speakers spoke on the “12 Steps” of recovery and how they line up with and complement the Bible. People spoke about how, no matter what you’ve been through, there is always hope. In addition, a Q&A session with a married couple gave insight into what healthy relationships look like.

A lot of these ladies grew up with romantic relationships not being healthy, so I think for them to see that was really good.” She also said, “It was really beautiful! It brought the ladies a lot of hope.”
