How to Celebrate Unsung Leaders

Angie Campbell, Breathe Collective founder, The C3 Church, Director of GLN UKI

At the Breathe Conference we love to honour the women who are spending their lives as unsung heroes, leaders that impact their communities or in courageous ways.

I love pineapples. On the 30thMay each year my dad would come home with one for me to enjoy.  They were expensive those days, and not freely available as they are now. Such a treat!

I’ve since discovered that the pineapple is a symbol of hospitality and generosity. It was served over the years as a real honour since they were difficult to grow here in the UK, hothouses were needed. Did you know that each plant only produces one fruit, creates plantlets for the next generation and then dies?

The pineapple can be used as a metaphor for our lives. Our one precious life that we get to live here in the earth.

At the Breathe Conference we love to honour the women who are spending their lives as unsung heroes, leaders that impact their communities or in courageous ways. Through nominations by friends we take the time to highlight women who are doing simple, ordinary but incredible things in this world.  

Women are gatherers. We’re famous for not being able to go to the restaurant loo without a friend! We love to do life together and so we should. Once we realised how much stronger we are for having true friendships then we seek out those spaces to connect. As we gather at the Breathe we always take the time to look outwards, to consider and support women or children who need our care. Shoeboxes to Eastern Europe, underwear for teenagers in Uganda, baby items for teenage mums, sponsorship of children in Kenya the list goes on.  This year we are planning to support women in Luton, street women who need extra care and our love to let them know they are not forgotten or rejected. The charity Azalea do an excellent job of supporting them.  

As we place value on women and see their faith in God enlarged we see families, communities, and charities strengthened. Shoulders back, heads held high ready to face a new day.  

We’d love for you to join us on the adventure together. Register for the Breathe Conference here: https://brushfire.com/thec3uk/breathe/554484
