Inter-European Division

Pastoral wives in Romania attended a convention entitled “Copilot to Heaven.” More than 130 spouses attended presentations about the Bible, raising children, relating to
adolescents, forming leaders in the church, and other topics. As pastoral spouses, we are all part of the same service family, and we need the support of those who share the same struggles. The Great Pilot wants to lead each pastoral wife beyond the clouds to a place of light and splendor, where she can be a blessing.

Northern Asia-Pacific Division
In October 2017 the Ministerial Spouses Association of Mongolia Mission distributed sewing machines to 29 pastoral homes. The sewing machines will be used to promote
the gospel through practical endeavors while also blessing the pastoral family. Funds for the project were raised by holding bazaars and praying diligently. Generous sponsors from Korea and the United States helped provide for this project. Please pray for pastoral spouses in Mongolia as they look for ways to bless their homes, churches, and community.

Southern Asia Division

The South Andhra Section held a one-day Shepherdess training program with 35 pastors’ spouses attending. The program included a session on the role of pastors’ wives

South Central India held a Shepherdess advisory in 2017. Various speakers did presentations on the theme “Chosen to Serve.” The Shepherdesses were encouraged to choose what to do with their calling. The meetings ended with a consecration service and prayer.

West-Central Africa Division

In December 2017, ministerial leaders from South Sudan met in Uganda. This was their first opportunity to get together as a group. We praise God for the special time of fellowship they enjoyed.
