Personal life

Bobbie and her husband, Brian Houston moved to Australia in February 1978, serving at Sydney Christian Life Centre, Darlinghurst, under Brian Houston's father, Frank Houston. In the early 1980s, Brian and Bobbie Houston started a church on the Central Coast, and a church in Liverpool. In 1983, they moved to Sydney's north-western suburbs and hired the Baulkham Hills Public School hall to start a new church, Hills Christian Life Centre. The first service was held on Sunday 14 August 1983 and is today Hillsong Church. Hillsong Church is located in major cities around the world.

The Colour Your World Women's Conference is hosted annually by Houston and the Hillsong team in Sydney, London, the US, Cape Town and Kiev.

Ministry

Houston runs the weekly women's ministry of Hillsong. In 1997 she also started the annual Colour Your World Women's Conference.

The Colour Sisterhood is a foundation set up by Hillsong Church through Hillsong Women, the women's ministry of the church.
