Women’s Ministries Awards

Thank you so much for supporting Women With A Mission, Covenant Sisters and The Home for Children
with your generous gifts and offerings! You truly have generous hearts and are such a blessing to these worthy
ministries! In the past we have given a plaque to each church who raised the most money for each of these
ministries. To better honor our churches for their giving and to recognize the pastor’s wives at these churches,
we have made some changes to our awards. First of all, we have dedicated a wall in the foyer of the
tabernacle to Kentucky Women’s Ministries and have mounted 3 perpetual plaques that will honor the winners
and runners-up in each category for these ministries. Secondly, each church winner and runner-up will receive
a beautiful certificate commemorating their receipt of this award. Finally, the pastor’s wife from each of these
churches will receive a monetary gift to thank her for her leadership in giving to these worthy ministries.

Only monies received in the State Office by May 19, 2021 will count toward this year’s awards.

Refreshing 2021 Women’s Service

Friday, June 11, 2021 at 10:30 AM will be our Women’s Ministries Service during our Refreshing 2021
Campmeeting. We will be honoring the award winners from 2020 and 2021 at the beginning of the service.
This year I have invited Deena Querry, Co-Lead Pastor at the Living Waters Church of God in Fountain Valley,
CA, to be our speaker. Deena will be sharing her testimony of God’s grace and healing after being diagnosed
with a brain tumor.

Reporting

As we are beginning a new reporting year for Women’s Ministries, I wanted to encourage all of our churches to
make a fresh effort to send in your Women’s Ministries Quarterly Reports. This past year has been rough on all
our churches. Our meetings and services have undergone major changes. Now that we are headed closer to
normal, it’s time to renew our efforts for Women’s Ministries in our local churches.

Empowered Women’s Conference 2022

Mark your calendars for March 25-26, 2022!! Empowered by Grace is the theme for next year’s conference
and it will be held here at our Kentucky Church of God Campground and Conference Center. We have lined up
special guests and activities and plan to make this a huge celebration of God’s grace in our lives and of the
women of Kentucky coming together again! You won’t want to miss this, so start planning now!

Thank you for all you do for Women’s Ministries in your local church and for your support for Women’s
Ministries in Kentucky. God is doing some great things in us and through us! I look forward to what God has
in store for the future!

Story of Hope

Below is a letter written by a survivor to House of Cherith.

“My life before House of Cherith was dark and hopeless. I had got to a
  point where I literally could not see a future. I had completely given
   up on myself mentally, physically, and spiritually. I was completely
   broken. I had lost my faith and hope. I battled with an addiction to
meth for eight years where during that time I lost everything that was
important to me and worth living for. I was a mom with two beautiful
   daughters, I was a nurse with the best bedside manner and I had a
 family that was proud of me. Then one by one and little by little I lost
all of that to where eventually I became homeless and somehow ended
     up being prostituted out to at multiple locations. I would meet
   someone thinking I was going to do legal work. I ended up getting
prostituted out for drugs, alcohol and money that they kept so I would
try somewhere else and it would happen again. Eventually, after being
     homeless for some time, it was cold outside and I broke into a
    building. I got arrested for burglary. I told my lawyer about being
 prostituted and the judge ordered me to complete the terms of Out of
  Darkness. Out of Darkness chose House a Cherith for me. House of
Cherith has changed many things for me. The biggest change is that it
    has given me back my faith and hope to where I can actually see a
  future. I have grown spiritually from the way the program is set up.
 We are allowed and blessed with space, food, clothes, and the time to
  heal. And the time that is given to us we are staying focused on God
    which is our foundation and around that is classes where we can
  learn, process and are given versatile tools to enable us to heal from
our trauma. I have also learned how to simply socialize again through
                               team building.”
