As we close the end of 2017 and look towards the New Year, I don’t have enough words to express my grateful thanks for your faithful prayers and financial support this year.
The highlight of 2017 was the immense joy of our butterflies gathering from around the world in Orlando to celebrate our 10 Year Anniversary. All glory to God! Thank you for your prayers and financial gifts which allowed this event to happen! I believe it has energized and inspired our Butterflies to fly higher and persevere in reaching more women around the world and in their communities with God’s love and freedom next year.
Looking ahead to 2018
God is opening new doors as butterflies find their wings in Europe. The impact of Marie Carmen spreading her wings in France led to an invitation for me to meet with CRU European women leaders in Madrid in November. Since then, several women are already sharing the Butterfly story in their countries and requesting Butterfly training;
Netherlands:I explained the gospel with this booklet (the Butterfly Story) with several women. I keep it in my purse so that I can share in God’s timing. Thank you for giving me this book in Madrid!”
Lithuania:I thank God for this meeting, He is still working in my heart. I already started to use some things you taught about the caterpillar and butterfly with Christian and non-Christian woman. I have a dream for the women of my country and maybe the things God opened to you are the ones He wants me to share here, in Lithuania….How can I learn deeper? Will teaching be held in Europe?
Switzerland:When I came to the conference, I felt like a butterfly, just sitting and waiting on a leaf with confusion and discouraged. The way you explained the simple story about the butterfly was like oil to my soul; simple and deep, and gave me encouragement to bring this story to my 30 Leaders. I would like to get more training and be equipped to bring the gospel to women. I feel a fire in my heart. If you organize a Workshop in Europe in the future, I would be very interested to participate.
Dear friend and partner, God still has work for us to do together! I cannot do it without you. I am excited about what He is preparing for us to do in 2018. As He draws more women around the world to Himself through the movement of His Holy Spirit in the Butterfly Effect, I value your continued partnership in monthly giving or in one time gifts as the Lord leads. If you would like to make an end of year gift towards resources, translations, printing, training and travel to equip and empower more butterflies next year to share the gospel and make disciples, you can make your end of year gift here:
On behalf of the Love UnVeiled Board, LUV team and our Butterflies worldwide, we pray God’s richest blessing and favor on you and your family in 2018.
