Girls Night Out events expand to UK and New Zealand

“Girls Night Out,” a women's event originating in Canada, has expanded their events into the United Kingdom and New Zealand, reports the ministry in its press release. The first event was held in the U.K. in September and plans are to do another twenty events in 2011. In the United States, Girls Night Out” is hosting events in eight different states in the coming months. “Girls Night Out” has surpassed over 200 events worldwide since its inception five years ago.

In addition to their overseas expansion, the company is touring “Couples Night Out” in Canada. Like its counterpart, “Couples Night Out” is held in community host churches of all sizes. Host churches are not charged any fees or promotional expenses, making it virtually free to any church willing to open its doors to their community. And at only a $5.00 per ticket, these events are also extremely affordable to budget-minded consumers.

"All these events are great evenings of fun, faith and fellowship for everyone,” says Mary Messina, Program Manager of “Girls Night Out” in the US. “Our events are not bible studies or weekend retreats and we are not trying to compete with big conventions. We have made these events scalable for local churches to get involved. We also know that 40-60% of people attending our events come from churches other than the host church and nearly 10% are unchurched, making these great events for outreach.”

“Girls Night Out” in the U.S. is a partnership between FaithLife Financial and World Vision. FaithLife Financial is a not-for-profit, member-owned Christian financial organization. World Vision builds international Christian partnerships that seek to overcome poverty and injustice for children and families across the globe. Messina says the partnership is invaluable as both companies are dedicated to Christian causes.
