For such a time as this" Esther 4:14 Grief, losses, domestic abuse, childhood issues – what do you say to others going through the wounds of the world? How do we help? These hurts and disappointments can have devastating effects. Many women have suffered these tragedies, many of whom we may know. If we do not understand the issues, we cannot bring others to the healing that Jesus would have them find. Join us as we look at the different issues that many women struggle with and learn how to come alongside them to provide support and to be God's hands when needed most. As Esther was used to help God's people, so, too, are we called... for such a time as this. ************************************************************************ July 16th, 2011 General Coalition Meeting 10:00 a.m. 600 SW 3rd Street Suite 6126 Pompano Beach, FL 33060 These are open meetings.
