As a little girl, I remember watching a video with the women group from Santa Ana singing the songs from the red hymn book. It was a home made video; nothing fancy. Just a recording of each lady, holding a microphone and singing. We had the video on often in the house. I remember adoring the ladies who were dressed in fancy gowns, with flowers in their hair and praising.
As the years have gone by, a few of the ladies are no longer with my congregation. The few that are active members are much older, and the years have worn them down. But, their faith shines through. Nothing had dimmed their light. They encourage the younger ladies and they have so much wisdom to share.
She speaks with wisdom, and faithful instruction is on her tongue
- Proverbs 31:26

Returning back to LEC, and sitting among the ladies of the congregation - getting to know them - has really opened my eyes to the fellowship among them. There is no gap between the older ladies and the younger ones. We speak openly and have learned to criticize with love and care. They are ready to share God's love. Their testimonies always proves that God works in wonderful ways. God always knows what I need to hear, what I need to learn, and what I need to do. He sent them to me to be that voice, the people to keep me accountable with my faith.
Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a women who fears the Lord is to be praised.
- Proverbs 31:30
Last term, I was selected as fundraiser coordinator. I wanted to be used. And, I did the best I could. This term, I have been elected as President of the Women's Department. I'm nervous, but I have an awesome team with me. I believe we are all burning with this desire to serve our Lord.
