Alliance Women Ministries - WordPress.com · Convention in Thailand Alliance Women Ministries plans to host a convention in Thailand for women from Thailand, Laos, Vi-etnam, China,

excited to see what God

will do for the women

through each of us as we

embark on this journey

together and with Him this

coming year.

Job 12:13 says, “To God

belong wisdom and power;

counsel and understanding

are his,” and Proverbs 2:6

says, “For the Lord gives

wisdom; from his mouth

come knowledge and un-

derstanding.” May God

favor us and grant us wis-

dom to lead the women!

N. Kx. Tswv Txos Thoj

District Director

Congratulations on your

new role as Director for

the women in your church!

Thank you for hearing His

call and being obedient to

the call. Henry T. Blackaby

writes, “The reality is that

the Lord never calls the

qualified; He qualifies the

called.” You have been

chosen, handpicked, and

called out of many people,

by God to lead the women

in your church into an un-

known place. This can be

an exciting, challenging

and even scary step at the

same time. What a great

blessing it is that God

chose, picked and called

you. Blackaby also says,

“We don't choose what we

will do for God; He invites

us to join Him where He

wants to involve us.” I am

honored to have this op-

portunity to partner with

you to serve the women in

such a time as this. I am so

Our new theme for 2016 is God’s Positioning System - Placed for a Purpose (Tso Nrog Homphiaj). This theme focuses on our pur-pose here on earth. Wher-ever God placed us (where we live, where we work,

where we attend church, etc.), He has a purpose for us being there. Acts 17:26b-27a says, “. . . He determined the times set for them and the exact places where they should

live. God did this so that men would seek Him.” Please refer to more infor-mation enclosed.

“Strong families

make strong

churches.” -

Joseph Stephen

Transformed Family Ministry

National Project Overview

2015- 2016 National Project;

“God’s Positioning System -

Placed For a Purpose” is cen-

tered on those people around

the world for whatever reason

have been scattered away

from an established or ances-

tral homeland. For some it’s

being on the move from life

threatening wars, persecution

or poverty. Often the flight is

at great risk to

them and their families.

Thousands often do not

make it to that safe place.

Those who do make it find themselves in a strange land. This is where our National Project steps up to provide funds for our Alliance international work-ers to offer services – such as language learning, job training, help with govern- ment paper work, or finding a place to live –

they establish relationships of trust, and people are open to the gospel. As friendships develop, Alliance workers verbally share God’s love, people become Christ followers, and we bring them together in small communities of fellowship to worship.

The goal is to raise $335,000 for the National Project in 2015-2016. Please help GCW reach its goal by supporting.

4 marriage conferences enti-

tled “Transformed Family

Ministry.” Our hope and

goal is that through these

conferences, marriages and

families will become

stronger. This in turn will

make the churches become

healthier and stronger as

well.

The dates and places for

these conferences will be as

follows:

March 11-13, 2016 – GA

April 29 – May 1, 2016 – CA

September 2-4, 2016 – MI

October 7-9, 2016 – WI

Please encourage your

women and their spouses

to save these dates. We

will send out more infor-

mation once we have the

exact places and prices, etc.

We believe strongly that for

the churches to be healthy

and strong, it starts from

our marriages and families.

Marriage and family are

divine institutions created

by God, but we have ne-

glected these institutions

for so long. For years now

our churches are no longer

strong, instead they have

become stagnant and

plateaud. This year,

Convention in Thailand

Alliance Women Ministries plans to

host a convention in Thailand for

women from Thailand, Laos, Vi-

etnam, China, Myanmar, and other

parts of the country, but due to

time constraints, we have decided

to postpone the

convention to the

summer of 2017.

This way it will give

us more time to

pray, prepare and

get the funds need-

ed.

In the meantime, I encourage

women everywhere to pray with us

for God to open doors so many

women, especially in closed coun-

tries, can come when we have the

convention in 2017. Also pray for

provisions financially, for AWM and

the women that will be coming to

the convention.

We encourage you to pray to see

how God wants you to help in this

process. Ask God to stir in your

heart and hearts of women across

the US to join with us in accom-

plishing this ministry for our sisters

abroad. You can join us in the

following ways: (1) go on the trip

with us, (2) pray for us, (3) give

financially or sponsor one or two

or three women to come to the

convention.

I am excited!!!!!

invest in them? It starts with giving

them time.”

AWM would like to start this in-

vestment process by holding 3 lead-

ership trainings in 2016. The dates

and places for these leadership

trainings are:

Jan. 29-31, 2016 — Clearwater, FL

March 25-27, 2016 — Pontiac, MI

John Maxwell says, “Good leaders

understand that they are stewards.

They must find the best people

they can, giving them the oppor-

tunity to join in the journey devel-

oping them, and encouraging them

to reach their potential.” Maxwell

adds, “Leadership is influence,

nothing more, nothing less. How

do you gain influence from people?

You invest in them. How do you

If your local group lives close

to these areas, I encourage

all the women to come and

learn with us this investment

process. I believe it will ben-

efit everyone greatly.

try where it is overflowing with

milk and honey, but there are many

of our dear Hmong sisters in

Vietnam that are calling out to us

for help today. They are in need of

$8,000 for setting up two trainings

for our Hmong sisters on health

and self care during 2016.

These are our Hmong sisters. If we

don‟t help, who will? Are we going

to turn them away from their call

for help? Let us join with God in

this wonderful opportunity that He

is doing in Vietnam. Join AWM by

setting aside a day from your busy

schedules to do a one day project

fundraising towards this wonderful

cause. Let us share the abundance

we received from Christ above

with those who are calling out to

us for help today. One cannot do

it, but all of us with God‟s help, we

can make this happen for our sis-

ters in Vietnam!

“There‟s a call comes ringing o‟ver

the restless wave, „Send the light!

of love, „Send the light! Send the
