The Pillar Diaries Conference is an annual gathering created to bring the heart of The Pillar Diaries into a shared, in-person space. Each year, women from across the Apostolic Pentecostal community come together for a time of worship, encouragement, and testimony, centered on faith, faithfulness, and the stories God is still writing. More than just an event, the conference is a place to pause, be refreshed, and be reminded that steady obedience and quiet perseverance matter. Through powerful testimonies, meaningful connection, and moments of reflection, the conference exists to honor the women who serve, strengthen those in every season of life and ministry, and leave attendees encouraged to continue standing strong as pillars in their homes, churches, and communities.
