International Women’s Day of Prayer Material 2018

First Sabbath in March is Adventist Women’s Day of Prayer

Chantal Klingbeil, the author for this year’s International Women’s Day of Prayer resource, quotes the following from the book, Steps to Christ, “We may have no remarkable evidence at the time that the face of our Redeemer is bending over us in compassion and love, but this is even so. We may not feel His visible touch, but His hand is upon us in love and pitying tenderness” (Ellen G. White, pp. 96, 97).
Chantal Klingbeil currently serves as an Associate Director of the Ellen G. White Estate at the General Conference of Seventh-day Adventists in Silver Spring, Maryland, U.S.A. She earned an M.Phil. degree in linguistics from Stellenbosch University, South Africa, and, over the past two decades, has served as mother, author, homeschool mom, high school teacher, university professor, and television host. Chantal J. Klingbeil was born and raised in South Africa though she lived in several other countries before moving to the United States with her husband, Gerald, and her family. In both academic and popular contexts, her articles have appeared in many journals and magazines.
Chantal is passionate about reaching children, youth, and young adults for Jesus. In her work at the Ellen G. White Estate she develops media and materials to bring Adventist history and the ministry of Ellen G. White to a new generation that is thoroughly at home in the digital age.
This multi-lingual author of the 2018 International Women’s Day of Prayer emphasis packet believes that God has done amazing things in her life. Her favorite Bible text is Psalm 37:4. “Take delight in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart” (NIV).’’
This valuable material which includes a sermon with powerpoint slides, a children’s story and seminar material for activities is released by the Women’s Ministries Department of the General Conference. The material will be translated into the various languages in our region in time for women to prepare special church services on March 3, 2018.
