“RE/QUIP is a one-day conference for people in their 20s and 30s focussing on WORK, EVANGELISM, and SERVICE.
”

Mathew Hale Public Library is again partnering with St Bart’s Toowoomba to resource, promote and encourage young adults through sponsoring the RE/QUIP conference. Now in its fourth year, this unique conference aims to engage, mobilise and equip young Christian workers. Through themed talks, workshops and Q&A sessions, participants will have opportunities to learn from, share and personally interact with guest speakers and peers on the challenges and opportunities for young Christian adults in the workplace and community, and in proclaiming the Good News.

The day runs from 9AM to 9PM with a mixture of keynotes, practical workshops, and time together!

The cost of the day is $90, however if you would like to come and this would be a barrier for you, contact Michael for more details at [email protected]
