About this Event
STRETCH MANCHESTER 2026
ELEVATE: Hopes and Heights
There is more ahead of you. Are you making room for it?
There are seasons when you know there is more to your life than what you are currently experiencing. More to discover about yourself. More growth to embrace. More possibilities to explore. More to contribute.
Perhaps you are navigating a transition, finding your way through an unexpected season, reconsidering your direction or simply sensing that you cannot remain where you are. You may have questions about your identity, your next season or the difference you are meant to make.
Whatever season you find yourself in, we invite you to make time for yourself and join us at STRETCH MANCHESTER 2026.
Our theme, ELEVATE: Hopes and Heights, is inspired by Isaiah 54, where God instructs a woman to enlarge the place of her tent, stretch out her curtains and make room for the increase He has promised.
This is the heart of Stretch. It is an invitation to lift your eyes beyond your present circumstances, renew your hope, embrace growth and prepare for the possibilities ahead.
WHAT TO EXPECT
- Faith-filled teaching and encouragement.
- Fresh perspectives on identity, growth and purpose.
- Practical insights to help you navigate your next season.
- Meaningful conversations and connections with other women.
- An opportunity to pause, reflect, renew your hope and prepare for what lies ahead.
- The unveiling of Dr. Manuela Izunwa's new book, She Flew Anyway.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND?
This gathering is for women who want to grow, women navigating transitions, women seeking direction, women ready to embrace new possibilities and women who know there is still more to discover and contribute.
You do not have to have everything figured out before you come. Come as you are, with an open heart and a willingness to grow.
