About DVS Conference
Our Vision
Too often, women — though born with a unique identity and divine purpose are reduced to merely surviving. But they are not called to survive; they are called to thrive. This type of violence is not just a societal issue; it is a demonic pandemic that must be stopped.
The DVS Conference will see women rise to reclaim their identities, rewrite their stories, and wear the victor’s crown.
DVS stands for Defiant. Victor. Surrender.
Defiant: Standing boldly against darkness and oppression.
Victor: Walking in the triumph Christ has already secured.
Surrender: Laying down burdens at the feet of Jesus to find true freedom.
For too long, pain, silence, violence and struggle have destroyed too many lives. The DVS Conference exists to rewrite their stories — to declare that God’s purpose for them is to be a victor, not victim. And this message transcends religious beliefs, cultural backgrounds, and personal histories.
