The Women’s Fellowship at Full Gospel Assembly, Assemblies of God, alongside fellow churches from the Assemblies of God South A District, gathered on August 15, 2026, in Kabankalan City.
The fellowship brought together women from different churches with a shared purpose: to pray, hear God’s Word, encourage one another, and grow stronger in faith and service to God. The women also joined in singing praises and worshipping the Lord wholeheartedly. According to Ptr. Toreta, it was “a refreshing moment in the presence of the Lord.”
A total of 89 women from the South A District attended, including 19 Women of Wonder (WOW) members from TCCC.
The fellowship featured a message from Ptr. Bravo entitled “Women of Faith: Biblical Qualities for Christian Women Today.” The message emphasized that a godly woman is not defined primarily by her circumstances, appearance, position, or achievements, but by her relationship with God and the character of her faith.
Ptr. Bravo highlighted the lives of women in the Bible whose faith continues to serve as a testimony today:
~Hannah — A woman of prayer (1 Samuel 1:10)
~Ruth — A woman of faithfulness (Ruth 1:17)
~Esther — A woman of courage (Esther 4:14)
~Mary, the mother of Jesus — A woman of submission (Luke 1:38)
~Mary of Bethany — A woman who valued Jesus (Luke 10:41)
~The Samaritan Woman — A woman who encountered the Living Water (John 4:10)
~Priscilla — A woman committed to God's Word (Acts 18:24)
The fellowship concluded with a reminder that Christian women are called not merely to appear Christian, but to live transformed lives through Christ. These qualities of faith, faithfulness, courage, surrender, and commitment should be reflected in their families, churches, and communities.
Above all, women need Jesus. As Ptr. Toreta emphasized, the world needs women whose lives are genuinely transformed by Christ and who faithfully reflect His love wherever God has placed them.
