Sister Connection Newsletter - November 2009
Widow’s Retreat 2009: "Stand Firm in the Lord"
"The voice of God kept insisting that if I would simply trust him, he would take care of me." Sister Connection widow, Daphrose, shared her story of physical and spiritual healing with the 364 widows.
Children’s Camp 2009: "The Way to God"
Singing, dancing, praying, listening. Drums, games, crafts, lots to eat. Dramatizing stories, memorizing scripture, sleeping on foam mattresses instead of mats letting their hearts be molded by the Spirit of God.
Youth Camp 2009: "Obedience is a Blessing"
Youth ages 13-26 gathered for two back-to-back camps (split by age), and the power of the Holy Spirit was tangible. These young people were challenged by Pastor Abby Nelson and her messages on radical obedience, forgiveness, and surrendering your strongholds to God. Their stories were stunning, and the crumbling of strongholds was evident from one session to another.
Christmas For Your Burundian Sister
Anyone can send a monetary gift to a widow and her family at Christmas time. Even a small gift will make Christmas a very special time for a Burundian family.
