Fine Linen to Wear

Saturday (today)

"Let us rejoice and be glad and give Him glory! For the wedding of the Lamb has come, and His bride has made herself ready. Fine linen, bright and clean, was given her to wear." - Revelation 19:7

Today was our Women's Conference of approximately 100 people. A few of the men gathered as well, as is customary, but our leaders stepped up and had them separate, so that the women and the men could have complete freedom to share.

Mukama Bulungi (God is good!) The Spirit moved mightily as Sue, Suzanne and Camille, as well as two of the Ugandan HH leaders, Pastor Joseph Tigawalana and Madinah Nakitende. ALL (ALL) of our leaders pitched in and pulled the conference together well!

The worship was beautiful as you will hear in the video and the testimonies and teaching were powerful. Camille was VERY surprised at tea time to be given a gift from some of the ladies and scurried into the bathroom where about 5 ladies changed her clothes (for her) into a BEAUTIFUL traditional dress that one of the ladies had made for her! By the way, it fit exactly! AND it was her favorite color, green (see pic). God used it in a mighty way to encourage the ladies with the passage above in Revelation that as the Lord changes their hearts, they have received Salvation, and they have received the wedding clothes. But...the closing message was how the Groom is coming, we were all spiritual prostitutes and adulterers, but Christ has made us His virgin bride. For now we are to be getting ready and we need our other sisters in Christ to help us "arrange" our clothes. And believe Camille when she says, "There was MUCH arranging of the clothes, before she could be presented!"

There was much celebration and anticipation in getting ready for the Groom by letting Him "heal our hearts" and have others to help prepare us. And best of all, three ladies made a decision for Christ and received Salvation.

We closed our time together with a separate leaders meeting with 6 Wounded Warrior leaders and 4 ladies to lead the women's studies.

We can't even blog how much God has done here, but it has been FANTASTIC!

Tomorrow is filled with more sharing, ministry to women and our leaders a couple of the leaders' churches, Pastor Tigawalana's church, Divine Gospel and also Pastor Dembe's church, God's Covenant Church.

Blessings and enjoy the pics!

Love,
Team Uganda
