The statement, issued by the sisters who met in London in 1948 sounds like echo and is still timely for us.
Let me remind it: "Facing
the world... today, with its desperate need of faith, of hope and of
love, we turn to our Heavenly Father for purification, for guidance and
for strength. He has great blessings in store for us, which He is
longing to give to us, but which can only be given to us in answer to
our prayers... Let us, as European Baptist women, dedicate the first
week in November as a week of prayer when we unitedly pray for each
other and for all the world. Never is the fellowship deeper, richer and
stronger than when we as one heart and one soul are praying together".
During
the period of 60 years 12 of the EBWU presidents with its committies
have served to the Lord. The number of the country unions grow up to
over 50. Each of them has own history of the ministry but just thanks
to the Lord together we could do much more that to help suffered women
and children and people in need and to let know Jesus Christ as
personal Savior for many who were in darkness. "The Lord has helped us all the way". (I Samuel7:12b), so we are very grateful to Him that He has used each of us as own instruments in mission work.
Dear
Sisters, may God bless you, and give you wisdom, peace and a lot of
joy, as you serve to people in own countries, in other European
countries and all over the world.
"So
then, my dear brothers - SISTERS, stand firm and steady. Keep busy
always in your work for the LORD, since you know that nothing you do in
the Lord's service is ever useless".
