February 2017 – From Ashes To Beauty News!

Dear Friends and Family,

Thank you for taking a few moments to read this update from Sheryl Giesbrecht.

These are exciting times to be alive. This is an amazing season to serve our God.

“I declare the end from the beginning, and from long ago what is not yet done, saying:

My plan will take place, and I will do all My will.” Isaiah 46:10 (HCSB)

At a booksellers conference with Bold Vision Books in Hershey, PA. Sheryl and the BVB team met with bookstore managers to build the Kingdom with Bible based books and resources. Thank you for your encouragement as I join the staff of Freedom In Christ Ministries! The ministry of Freedom In Christ (FIC) strives to help people realize their identity and freedom in Christ. I continue to have many opportunities to help others find their identity in Christ.

Sheryl explains the power of understanding the names of God as a guest on the Real Life Show with Don and Terri Black of Cornerstone Television Network in Wall, PA. “Wherever I cause My name to be honored, I will come to you and bless you.” Exodus 20:24

My borders are expanding! First, Freedom In Christ (www.FICM.org). Second, the Holy Spirit Broadcasting Network has invited me to share “Transformed Through Truth with Sheryl Giesbrecht” as a regular teaching feature on their internet based television network. Launching in March 2017 and available (www.hsbn.tv) or download the Holy Spirit Broadcasting Network app from the app store. (Monthly production and broadcasting expenses are $3,000.)

Third – March 2017 – Freedom In Christ trip to India. India’s women are fighting an uphill battle. Indian women from the lower caste Dalit people are workers at tea plantations. They are impoverished, overlooked, marginalized and wounded. Won’t you pray for their complete freedom and renewed hope?

 Sheryl Teaches Women in India March 10-24, 2017. She joins the team with Global Sharing to bring identity in Christ and forgiveness to women in bondage. Sheryl will teach the women and staff. She will also conduct a servant leadership seminar for local pastors.

India Recently Named – Worst Place to Be A Woman – Pray for total freedom and restoration for the Dalit women. Freedom In Christ to India – one time trip cost $3,500 – visa, airfare, room and board, translators and teaching materials. We are staying in the housing of Alpha Mission School. AMS provides the best English and Bible-based education in the region. Our team is bringing tools and resources.
