Our days are about sisters encouraging sisters in their journey to the Kingdom and by so doing to enrich our relationship with the Lord God and the Lord Jesus Christ, and with each other. We pray also, that we might reach out and lead other women seeking God to a greater understanding of His Love and Purpose.
Our Sisters’ Days, therefore, are for all women – sisters, female relatives and friends of any age who are seeking to develop a closer relationship with the Lord God and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Our meetings together will be informal. The purpose is to share our love of the Lord in joyful fellowship, friendship, worship, study, discussion and various activities. These may include practical sessions or times for giving information and/or discussing spiritual or practical concerns affecting women generally such as women’s health issues and the effects on spiritual wellbeing.
As our concern is with spiritual values and our individual walk with God we prefer to discourage at our meetings any negativity about ecclesias, or the role of sisters.
We pray for our Sisters’ days to promote an atmosphere of mutual understanding, acceptance, empathy and love for one another through an increased awareness of God’s grace, and that our time together will enrich our understanding of the Word of God and its application in our lives to the benefit of ourselves and our brothers and sisters.
