All of the men of Salvation Church wish you a happy 8th of March (International Women's Day)! We thank the Lord for your commitment, love, courage and goodness! In our language the word "church" is a feminine noun, and we are certain that even this small detail is not without meaning, since, even though the Apostle Peter calls you "weaker vessels", God uses you powerfully for the accomplishment of His will through our church. In many qualities of Christian character you are great examples for all of us. It is hard to imagine not only the church, but life on Earth without you!

May the the hand of our loving Heavenly Father be with you and keep you always! May the Lord give you strength and inspiration for service! May He understand you where we find it hard! May He help you where we don't have the strength! Never forget that without you life would be colorless and boring! You are our inspiration, our help, and tremendous example to imitate!

 

 

With love, the men of Salvation Church

The married men of our church, in support of the theme for the month, and from hearts overflowing with gratitude, decided to follow the example set in Proverbs 31 and honor their wives with warm words of praise. Each of them was given the assignment to complete the phrase: "I value my wife for...". We are sharing with you, dear wives, the fruit of deep meditation and sincere love.
