The Delhi District held its first Women’s Conference titled “Crowned to Craft” in Delhi, India from 1-2 October 2025. The theme was drawn from 1 Peter 2:9–10, reminding women that they are chosen and called to declare God’s praise through their lives.
The two-day conference brought together 42 women from across the district for times of worship, creativity, and learning. Laughter filled the hall, hands were lifted in prayer, and hearts were stirred by the Word of God. Every woman came with an open heart and left with a deeper sense of purpose and belonging.
Unlike ordinary meetings, this gathering encouraged participation by inviting every woman to share her thoughts, join in discussions, and express her faith journey. This open and inclusive atmosphere created a sense of unity and reflected the heart of Christ, filled with love, respect, and equality.
Gethsy Jayakumar spoke from the lives of Hagar, Priscilla & Aquila, and Mary of Bethany, teaching about God’s response in the mess, his resources through togetherness, and his reward in brokenness. Participants said these teachings helped them see how God can use their struggles to shape his purposes in their lives.
The speakers also shared about building an emotional connection with Christ, helping women understand faith as a relationship not a routine.
One participant shared, “I thank God for the meeting we had. It was such a great time together, and we received many blessings through God’s Word.”
As the sessions went on, the presence of the Holy Spirit was felt strongly.
One attendee said, “I received blessings from all the sessions and teachings. It feels like, after many years, something new and wonderful is happening in our district.”
District Superintendent Rev. Kingsley Jayakumar supported the leadership throughout the planning and execution of the event. The NMI team worked with passion to make the conference meaningful and memorable. Local pastors and congregations showed their support through prayers, participation, and financial help.
