A Blessed Time with Beautiful in India

The women laughed about and shared their newly-made creations. Their joy lit up the room!

You’ve probably never seen so many colors in one room as when women in India get together! We were privileged to have Kathy Miller, Grace Baptist, Cedarville, Ohio, join our team of teachers last month in our women’s conferences. I also loved having Linda Iles once again on our teaching team. Sarah Rieger (IM staff) and her sister Katie helped the women make a beautiful beaded bracelet from a kit designed by Jennifer Cunningham (BI staff) and assembled by volunteers.

The women really enjoyed the time together in the Word and in fellowship. The bracelet craft was especially appreciated and brought the women together, as you can see in the picture!

Beautiful’s winter theme in India and the Middle East is “Waking up to the Power of God in my Life.” We’re exploring how God’s power CAN change us, how He guides and gives us wisdom in the exact areas women need help in daily! Special thanks to our Beautiful Partners who pray and donate so these conferences and ministry are possible; you are helping national women with a critically needed ministry! In March I’m working in Iraq with refugees where we’ve started a literacy program with Yazidi and Christian women, focusing on widows and young women – a critical-need work!
