Greetings to all from National Office in wonderful Wellington! Who can believe it’s suddenly almost the middle of the year!! We’ve been talking about suddenlies in here today, and hope, and the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, Oh how wonderful is His grace! Hope you’re aware of His grace and His hope being with you today, through all your suddenlies!!! :-) Lots of news to share, so here we go...
LEADERSHIP SUMMIT Among the treats shared, was a visit to the National Office. We realise that many have not had the opportunity to see where we work, so it was great to welcome everyone in, enjoy some afternoon tea (of course), followed by some teaching, sharing and praying on home base. It was a fabulous afternoon. But the real highlight is being together to hear what the Lord is saying to us.
Robyn MacFarlane spoke on our “Royal Call”. We are a royal priesthood, a Holy Nation, created for glory, we are God’s Masterpiece, a chosen generation. Some may say we have heard this before, but just because we had dinner last night, it doesn’t mean we don’t need to eat again tonight. How wonderful that we can hear and choose to live in these Truths day in and day out. Kevin Hight reminded us that we are carriers of the resurrected Christ, and carriers of revival. Kevin expanded our thinking on 2 Tim 1:7. He spoke of walking in the power of unconditional LOVE, Holy Spirit FIRE and Jesus' JOY. Kevin brought a personal and timely word for Aglow corporately, and for each person present. It was great to hear the speakers words dovetailing, as if the Lord was saying, "I have repeated that... did you receive it"? After Summit our leaders spoke of being in awe of the Presence of our Holy God. Many have said they have been unable to put into words what happened, but they have been changed. Thankyou Jesus!
WELCOME TO NEW LEADERS We used to say “stretch and grow in Aglow” so, we warmly welcome the following ladies to a season of stretching and growing in Aglow leadership!!
Also, a big welcome back to Jean Scott (Thames) and Laraine Bennett (President, New Aglow, Auckland East). We love to hear of leaders coming back for more! Fabulous! A big thank you to all for being willing to put your hand to the plough. There are several other Leadership applications in process, it’s a busy year! We also bless Lyn Dodds in Hokonui, Kay Payne in Mosgiel and Barbera Wiseman in Hamilton as these new Presidents take up their mantles.
FAREWELL TO NFR, ANNE DONKER Some of you may not have caught up with the news that our lovely NFR, Anne Donker, from the Northern region has recently resigned. Anne has blessed so many with her encouragement, teaching and wise leadership over more than 13 years. She was farewelled by the team in Whangarei, we add our blessings to her as she leaves to embrace a new season in her life. Thanks for the memories Anne!
FROM OUR PLACE TO YOURS… A practise to ponder In the office we have a wonderful way to start each day, we come into the office, then go into our ‘closet’ (storeroom) and pray for 10 minutes, uninterrupted in tongues. Each one, as we arrive, quietly goes in, regardless of what else may be happening. The first few days it was a little tough as though there was a barrier, but suddenly, an open Heaven!
This morning we wondered if Linda would return to her desk… pondered having to tie a rope to her feet and drag her out! Its amazing the difference it makes. Recipe for good health = ten minutes in tongues to begin the day and repeat as required. Try it.
INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE 2013 - ORLANDO, FLORIDA
Registrations now open! We so enjoy meeting with you, talking with you on the phone and staying in touch through email. Jeanette has many engagements throughout the Nation as we go forward into the year and it’s a delight for her to be out and about speaking and encouraging as she goes. Please do pray that others will join us in the Office. The more in here, the more we are able to release Jeanette and each other to spend time with you also. We love the part of our mission statement that speaks of “restoring people to a radiant place of relationship with God and one another”. Be radiant girls, be restored, and enjoy blessing one another With love always in Christ…. who is our Lord and Bridegroom King
Jeanette, Linda, Glenda and Judy and remembering our precious Mary who went to be with the Lord on the 8th May 2013
