International Women's Day

March 8 is International Women's Day and here in Romania it is also Mother's Day.  Since the holiday fell on a Sunday, in church there were special greetings for the ladies, a poem for the mothers, an emphasis on women in the message and each lady in church received a flower.
Women are very important in the Kingdom of God and we appreciate each one who, like the Mary that Paul the Apostle greeted in Romans 16:5, "work so hard" for the benefit of each of us.  Ladies, we salute you and encourage you to continue praying, cooking, cleaning, preaching, teaching and singing for the glory of the Lord and the benefit of his Church.
