Assistants in Focus Series (Final) - Tribute

These are women who have their jobs, their professions, others work and study, and they have their homes and families.

They work outside, and when they come home, they have to provide for the welfare of their families and the good progress of their homes.

Many of these women confront struggles at work, at home, and all is because of their faith.

What makes them admirable is that they also set time apart to serve God; these women are the helpers of the Universal Church.

In addition to taking care of their own homes, they take care of the house of God, seeing every detail, taking care of the children, so that the parents can participate in the services peacefully; they evangelize, clean the church, serve those who need spiritual help, give a word of encouragement, or simply attend those in need to be heard.

Without them, we would not have proper condition of receiving so many people in the church, and care for all of them with special attention; they are fundamental in the work of God and to the growth of the Kingdom of Heaven.

Everything they do is out of love, for they felt God's calling, came forward, and prepared themselves to win souls.

They are not awarded with anything material, but God’s reward for them will be great; they may not get fame, or have their names written on a wall or on any mural, but they are certainly very special to God.

I want to make this small tribute to the female helpers of the IURD worldwide, for their spiritual services and dedication in the courts of the Lord.

Keep serving the Lord with enthusiasm and fervor and He will reward you all.
