Welcome from Regina
Hello Friend,
Whether you are joining us for the first time or you have been part of the Focus Forward Women's conference before, I am so glad you landed here. There is something special about women making the decision to gather and grow together. What began as a vision in 2022, became a space where women come together to grow in faith, find strength in sisterhood and make room for what the Holy Spirit wants to do in their lives.
Every time we gather, we are reminded of God's faithfulness through worship, teaching, conversation, laughter and moments we could never fully plan. As we look toward the Focus Forward Women's Conference 2026, our prayer is that every woman who walks through the doors would encounter the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and leave refreshed, strengthened, and certain, no matter what she's facing, that her story isn't over, because in Him, there is always a way forward.
I’m grateful you’re here, and I cannot wait to gather with you.
With love,
Regina Donaldson
FROM A VISION TO A LIFE-CHANGING GATHERING
In 2022, Regina recognized that many women were carrying the full weight of life's responsibilities and stress, stuck in seasons of burnout and tiredness, and losing sight of their purpose and calling in the middle of it. So she built a space to meet that need: dedicated time away from the weight of everyday life to worship, reflect, grow, and reconnect with God and with women who are learning the same thing: how to keep looking forward instead of staying stuck.
Through every season of change, our heart has stayed the same: to glorify God and create room for women to encounter the Gospel honestly, find strength in sisterhood, and hold on to hope for what He's already preparing next. So we bring together theology, psychology, and leadership insight to help women carry Christ into every part of their lives and become all of who God is forming them to be.
