Rroma-workers come from all walks of life, be that different nationalities and cultures, ages, genders, ministry focuses, or denominations. But, regardless of their own background, Jesus Christ is the common denominator that unites all RWN workers together (see the RWN Statement of Faith<\/em> below). Our RWN biennial conferences are a great opportunity for Rroma-workers from all across Romania, to spend a week together in fellowship and away from the day-to-day demands of life and ministry.<\/span><\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

As outlined by the RWN mission focus, these conferences are designed to “Encourage, equip and empower Rroma-workers to reach Rroma people and communities with the gospel.”<\/p>\n

Encourage:<\/strong> We want to see workers being strengthened and\u00a0 refreshed in their own faith, and walking closely with fellow workers for encouragment, support and accountability. By re-filling their own spiritual jars, workers can continue to pour into the lives of their families, friends, and the Rroma people and communities they are investing in. At these conferences, workers will be spiritually and personally fed through times of worship and devotions, and through workshops on topics like how to ensure they can endure long-term ministry.<\/p>\n

Equip:<\/strong> We want to see workers being equipped with knowledge, skills, and resources to serve the Rroma people in a\u00a0 Christ honouring and culturally appropriate way. Workers are equipped as they receive training on topics relevant to the Rroma context, including Rroma epistomology, worldview, culture and traditions, church planting, and obstacles in working with Rroma. Workers are also equipped through workshops and discussions on current affair topics, such prevention and education in Human Trafficking and Small Business Initiatives.<\/p>\n

Empower:<\/strong> We want to see workers being empowered so that they in turn can invest in each other, and in the lives of their families, churches, and the Rroma people they work alongside. We want to ensure that workers are able to thrive as they invest in the next generation of leaders for a long-term and unified impact for the gospel.<\/p>\n

If you know of a Christian individual or an oganisation who works with Rroma people and communities in Romania, who is not already part of the RWN, please ask them to create a profile using the new worker profile registration on this website. Once accepted, they will be able to see the details about any upcoming conferences or events.<\/p>\n

If they do not have sufficient internet access, please contact us so we can make sure they receive notification of any conferences or events.<\/p>\n

Registration Costs & Payment:<\/span><\/h2>\n
\n

The cost to attend the conference is 1150 Ron<\/strong> per worker. This will include conference facilities, accommodation, materials, meals and coffee breaks.
A small \u2018cash only\u2019 canteen\/shop will also be available to buy water, chocolate and other snack food.
A non-refundable deposit of 150 Ron<\/strong> is required upon registration (although you can pay the full amount if preferred). There are up to 80 spaces available (depending on room allocations) and the deadline for registrations is 27th April, 2026.<\/strong>
If you are unable to pay for some or all of your conference costs, please see the information below on sponsorships.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Financial Sponsorships:<\/span><\/h2>\n
We understand that the cost of the conference may be completely or partly unaffordable for some workers. Even though we would love to be able to provide a way for everyone to come, this blessing will be based on the number of sponsorships received. If you have financial supporters yourself, can I encourage you to promote our Pay-it-Forward option, particularly to help local Rroma workers attend. <\/span><\/div>\n
<\/span><\/div>\n
If this is your first conference, you will be eligible to receive a full sponsorship.\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/span><\/div>\n
If you have been the recipient of a financial sponsorship for a previous conference, you will need to cover a minimum of 25% of your conference costs. We encourage you to contribute towards your own registration for this conference as much as is feesible, to allow other workers to also benefit from this blessing. The (non-refundable) deposit of 150 Ron will be taken from the balance of the total payment.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
<\/span><\/div>\n
NOTE:<\/strong> Please be aware that we are unable to provide sponsorships for any children attending the conference, though they are welcome to attend. We will have a helper for any children attending during the sessions. Parent’s will be required to care for their children during meals and free time.<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/span><\/div>\n

Can you Pay-it-Forward?<\/span><\/h2>\n
Can you donate \u20ac260<\/strong>\u00a0(including administration costs and resources for the conference) (AUD$460; USD $225)<\/strong>? If yes, that will enable ONE Rroma-Worker to come for the whole conference, including accommodation and meals!
We are hoping to have at least 40 financial sponsorships<\/strong> available.
\u200b
There are two steps to sign up to be a Financial Sponsor:<\/strong>
