Thanks to you!

Thanks to everyone who joined us in Toronto this past weekend for our Women Alive Toronto Conference. What a day it was!

A strong theme of redemption and hope in the midst of challenging life circumstances was woven through many of our speakers' presentations, as they shared their own stories of God's faithfulness in their lives.

Joanne Goodwin asked whether we are in Babylon longing for 'the better days' of Jerusalem. Do we feel as though we are in exile and don't deserve the harsh realities we are facing? She reminded us that there are certain things in life we can't change: our parents, the loss of a loved one, etc. but we can trust that God is still in control and knows what He is doing in our lives.

What is your 'Babylon'? Don't forget, our 'Babylon' experiences are often the ones that God will use the most to help us comfort and encourage others going through similar experiences.

Look forward to seeing you again, on this side or the next!
