Many of us were feeling fortunate just to be at the London Women's Convention as it opened on Saturday morning, October 2.
Places had been hard to come by with the tickets sold out on the first day they went on sale a few months ago! As the day unfolded, our expectations were not disappointed. In the company of 1,000 believers we were treated to clear and challenging teaching in an uplifting atmosphere of encouragement and fellowship.
One of the attendees said: 'I didn't want the day to finish. If they are running the event twice next year, I am tempted to go both times.' Ann Benton, the Chairman of the Convention, reflected: 'I realised the day was going well because the singing got louder and more passionate as the day progressed. By the time the women were singing "My Jesus, my Saviour", we were raising the roof. There was a real sense that God was with us.'
