Ephesians 4:12
“…prepare God’s people for works of service, so that the Body of Christ may be built up until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ.”
Last Friday, Knowing God Ministries hosted the fall kick-off of Women’s Leadership League! The time was edifying and the speaker, Suzi McDuffee was fabulous.
The theme this month was “The Fragrance of Christ.” Suzi challenged the Christian leaders gathered to be the fragrance of Christ in their spheres of influence. The only way to be the fragrance of Christ in our corners of the world is to nurture an:
- an abiding life,
- a prayerful life, and
- a surrendered life.
It was wonderful! We should probably start having these messages recorded and begin making them available. Below are pictures of our time together. For more – see the Knowing God Ministries Fan page on Facebook-
Arrival!
After eating a fabulous lunch, our speaker sharpened us to have the fragrance of Christ – not the fragrance of a nasty trash-can!
We pray corporately aloud, around our tables with each other. Autumn Weikert, one of our team members directed our prayer time. So sweet! So unifying… So powerful!
One of the wonderful things about Women’s Leadership League, is the sharpening at our tables. Women in leadership get to meet other women who do what they do and share what’s working and what’s not working in their ministries.
Preparing to leave!
In light of all that’s going on in the world, women need Jesus more than ever. They need to know that He’s real. That He longs to know them personally and intimately. That He’s not just a remote building or a study we go to once a week.
The women you see in the pictures above are under-shepherds of a sheep fold in their corner of the world. Knowing God Ministries wants to come along beside them and sharpen them to be more effective in their sphere of influence.
In the near future, we hope to begin hosting an outreach event geared to all women. There’s so much that goes into something like this – first starting in prayer. God has given us the vision. Please join us in prayer.
