Women of the Word Toronto
inspires today’s woman to foster
her relationship with God.
hope
At WOW-T, we provide opportunities for women to listen to other women share their personal stories of hope and transformation at one of our women's events; women who came to understand with deep confidence that God walks with them no matter how dark a season of life may be. Hope kept them from discouragement and sustained them in times of trial and tribulation.
God uses the virtue of hope to sustain us and set us free.
Our Mother, Queen of Holy Hope – Pray for us.
heal
Life circumstances can sometimes wound us deeply, causing a separation between us and the love, freedom and healing that God desires to give us. At WOW-T, we provide speakers who gently guide us on a path of self-awareness by accessing the deep, spiritual traditions within the Church, Bible, Saints and Psychology. In doing so, it is our hope that each woman receives this healing, liberating love of Christ.
restore
At WOW-T, our desire is that every woman goes to Jesus whom she will find waiting for her. Receive Him in the Eucharist; He desires to be with you. Go to Him in Confession; He wishes to shower His Mercy upon you. Visit Him in the Blessed Sacrament; allow Him to transform you.
“It is Jesus that you seek when you dream of happiness; He is waiting for you when nothing else you find satisfies you.” - Pope St. John Paul ll

NIKKI KINGSLEY
Nikki Kingsley
Christian Convert, Evangelist,
What is the Truth?
This was the burning question that led Nikki Kingsley on her journey from Islam to Christianity.
Nikki’s remarkable story began in Pakistan where she was born in a Muslim family. She arrived in America at the age of thirty with her two young children, seeking freedom from an arranged marriage, and discovered the promise found in the dream called America.
Nikki’s life went through a dramatic turn when she had an
extraordinary series of mystical experiences. These events prompted her to question and reconsider the Muslim faith that she had practiced for 40 years.
Ultimately, this led Nikki to The Truth in the person of Jesus Christ.
A compelling speaker, Nikki now shares her life-changing story of faith and hope––a story of a journey from the culture, faith, and traditions of the East to the freedom of the West. She has been a guest on many Catholic shows including The Journey Home on EWTN, The Lila Rose Show, Ave Maria Radio, The Catholic Channel on Sirius XM,
and a speaker at many Catholic conferences and retreats.
Nikki Kingsley’s dynamic account of her faith journey from darkness into Light is detailed in her book, Thirst for Truth: From Mohammad to Jesus, and can be purchased on her website at nikkikingsley.com
