REMEMBERING THE IMPACT
A powerfully symbolic moment took place between one of the young women who attended and four of the ladies on the teaching team. Dania’ is 23 years old and came from an abusive family background, but is now married to a dynamic young man of God. She was deeply affected by the teaching she heard over the four days. As she sobbed through telling her story, she took off her earrings and gave them to Becky; she also gave away her pendant, then her precious purse, and finally her other pair of earrings to Michele, a great sacrifice of appreciation. As the women cried together and prayed for Dania, one of the Worldserve team members took the necklace she was wearing and put it around Dania’s neck.
We can only hope that God continues to use this type of conference as we take it to other parts of Cuba and share it with more pastor and leader couples. They, in turn, will go back to their own congregations and use it to help teach Godly marriage principles there.
