WOW In Hawaii - Shaking Things Up

Here is a report from Major Jonette Mulch the DWMS in Hawaii:

We had a wonderful WM Retreat in October. As I have not been responsible for a Divisional Women's Ministry Retreat before, I prayed that they Lord would do a mighty thing! I asked the Lord to make this event something that the ladies would never forget --- so He sent us a 6.7 Earthquake! Did this stop the women of the Hawaiian and Pacific Islands? NO!

We shared our continental breakfast that was already set up in our meeting room with many hotel guests who were looking for food, light and comfort. One of the employees of the hotel, who was assisting with our food, asked me what to do about the other people who were not with our group. I told her to let them come, after all.... We are The Salvation Army! We continued the rest of the morning in praise, prayer and sharing of the Word of God. The ladies who were heading home to the outer islands had the opportunity to give water and food to stranded people at the airport. We will not forget this event!

So God is already doing a WOW! thing here! It is exciting to think what He has in store for us the rest of the year!
