Prayers for our Women’s Retreat
February 8th, 2010 Posted in General Updates
We (Josiah Venture Ukraine, made up of me, Brittney, and Cameron, my female teammates) are hosting a girls/women leadership retreat outside of L’viv 2/19-21
We invited female leaders and potential leaders from the ~ 10 different churches that we have worked closely with in Ukraine. We’ve been planning the event for a while, and at this point in the calendar, I always feel anxious about who will actually show up. Ukrainians aren’t accustomed to RSVP, and sometimes attendance depends on what ever else cool or uneventful might be happening that weekend. I tend to take the “no’s” personally. I need faith! It’s just that we work so hard and REALLY want no one to miss it. Such conferences are few and far between in this land.
Pray for faith that God will bring us exactly who He desires. Pray that we fill all 40 spots. Pray for over half of our guest, who will be traveling to get to us. Pray for our speakers from Slovakia. Pray that this will be a valuable time for the girls to be encouraged in Christian leadership and to realize the great potential that God has placed on them to partner in the Gospel.
