More than 100 women have enjoyed two special retreats organised by the Fellowship of Independent Evangelical Churches (FIEC). Women’s Ministry Co-ordinators, Rachel Sloan and Elinor Magowan report:
We prayerfully crafted two retreats for women serving in FIEC churches. In ‘normal times’ these retreats – Thrive, for women in ministry, and Ministry Wives’ Retreat, for wives of men in ministry – would be in-person and held at a retreat centre. This year they were each two days in length, mainly on Zoom and all ‘at home’.
Rachel spoke from Ephesians 1:1-10 and Romans 8:14-25 on the theme ‘Adopted as Daughters’, and Elinor led two seminars -‘Finding Joy’ and ‘True Beauty’. The focus was on the wonderful blessings that come from being a child of God.
