Many
are being martyred for their faith in Jesus Christ and we prayed for
their families that they would know that their Lord stands with them in
their trials. Come, Lord Jesus!
Praise God that He is with all His people always and that includes
those who are suffering – may they be given strength and courage
in the face of such danger and even death. We also prayed for Patsy
Davis and Dorothy Selebano and all the continental Presidents,
including our own Livija Lame. Oh yes, we do have a God Who cares very
much for us and loves us unreservedly and we take joy and comfort in
that. He is just so wonderful and so good! |

One
of our Scottish past president’s and a member of our church led
us in a time of reflection on God’s care, while another read the
testimonies. We had a great time of fellowship and prayer together.
Each woman received a flower which she wore in her hair during the
service. We used flowers (as was done in Dalfsen) to represent the
prayer requests. We covered a table with an Australian tablecloth and
had various items on it which represented the South West Pacific
(shells, flowers, stones and pebbles etc) and also tea-light candles
burning. I made cardboard shells and each woman placed her offering
into a shell and these were collected in a basket. I also made the
lemonade scones from the web page and we had them with tea and coffee
after the service along with pineapple, kiwi fruit, and melon. It was
good to sit and chat for a wee while afterwards before we went home.
