ENCOUNTER
May 19-21, 2017
CHURCH WITHOUT WALLS MINISTRIES
BRIDGEPORT, CT
At our last encounter God blessed us to experience some wonderful things by way of emotional healing, bonding
with our sisters, deepening our spiritual relationship with God, and allowing ourselves to relax and have fun.
Many of us ventured out and did some things that we never thought we would do and when we did them, it
opened our minds to get out of the box of doing things repetitively. We were able to see that God created this
world for us to enjoy it and see His Glory in all of it. We saw Him in nature. We heard His voice in the quietness
of the breeze moving through the trees and gliding across the water. We saw Him in the sun as it rose early in the
morning. The animals even gathered in the water and the air to join with us as we sang praises to God early in
the morning on the lake.
We left Camp Jewell renewed and refreshed, even lighter because we laid all the stuff down and did not pick it
back up. We thank God for showing us how to be transparent and to recognize the weights we need to shed that
causes us not to function in our greatest potential.
This year I pray that we as women will learn to be the conduits in our circles. Understanding, that you are unique
in every way and there is not another you anywhere. Each of us were created for a purpose with a purpose and
when the doors of opportunity are presented to you do not let fear and doubt paralyze you and cause you to miss
your opportunity.
This is your time NOW! God has favored you. This is RESTORATION time and Gods promises are being released.
The Women of Church Without Walls Ministries and myself are excited to host you once again and we are
delighted that you have chosen to spend this awesome weekend with us. To those of you returning we are glad to
see you and pray you have another awesome encounter. To those of you who are here for the first time we pray
you will have an encounter as you connect with yourself, each other and most powerfully, GOD.
Much Love,
