"I sense that this is a unique opportunity for our nation," Bobbie Houston, conference host and founder, co-senior pastor of Hillsong Church, said.
"An opportunity where women with a genuine spirit of unity, friendship and cause, can bridge century old barriers and be catalysts of change in a world so desperate for it," she said.
This year, two back-to-back conferences will stretch across six days, and see dozens of nations represented, with guest speakers from the USA, Denmark, Uganda and Australia.
At its core, the Colour Conference is humanitarian. Over the years delegates have sponsored thousands of children through Compassion, raised awareness and built several hundred homes for African orphans and widows.
They have contributed to the establishment of a clinic for abandoned babies in the African region of Gulu and last year thousands of dollars were raised to rescue child soldiers and provide life-giving medication to HIV positive women in the war-torn nation of Uganda.
"This is an opportunity for women across the breadth of the global Church to recognise a unique time in history and respond accordingly,
"This conference has a heart and every year it has been revealed in greater measure," Mrs Houston said.
Over the next five days delegates will be presented with a number of new initiatives and social justice projects and gain the tools, insight and inspiration to be the change in their very own communities.
