Texas Conference Women’s Ministries is here to serve you through ministry training, provision of resources, prayer and leadership.

A Note from Sandy

As I have traveled around the Texas Conference, meeting so many of you has been a pleasure.

If you are the Women’s Ministries leader for your local Texas Conference church and are not on my email list, please email me at WMEnglish@txsda.org so we can keep in touch.

As we see the signs that our savior JESUS is about to return, ladies, let’s roll up our sleeves and get this work done as how only GOD’S daughters of Ophir can.

I am asking for your prayers for my marriage and my heart. I have reached my limit; I am physically and spiritually drained. I have changed and done everything possible, including completing the Love Dare, yet all my efforts are met with suspicion and lack of trust.

Please pray specifically that God breaks the chains of pride and the fear of external opinions that have paralyzed my husband, He is a God's man, his child. He is so consumed by what others think that he cannot act with truth or courage. I have done my part, and now I am surrendering this battle to the Lord. Please pray for my peace as I step back and leave this in His hands.

Please pray for my wife's family as they mourn the loss of her grandmother, also for peace in my home and for my wife and I to get along better. I would also like prayer for me to do well at work, to get through learning curves with grace, and for safety. Thank you and God bless you, in Jesus name.

Salvation for the member of AA in the groups I go to. Many of them speak of God, but I am not sure if they know Jesus. God open their minds and hearts to the Gospel message. Salvation for George, Be, Tom, Gus, Donna, Allan. More faith for my fellow believers. Healing for Keith and Mark. God would bless Alex and his ministry as Chaplain. Elenita would be able to come to US soon. God make a way with the paperwork. I need another car soon without the massive debt. God have mercy. Daniella and her husband for more faith. Sy for more faith. Carline for more faith. Brenda for more faith and strength as she takes care of her elderly mother. Pastor James and Tracey would accept the Adventist message. Sarah would come out of being a lesbian. Healing for Adam, GB, Earnail, Allison. God would make a way for Steve and his wife to come to church, read the Bible, and surrender to Christ. I know several Pastors in Sunday churches: they would accept the Adventist message. God have mercy on them and their churches. God would bless my job and all those I interact with. God have mercy. Kelly and her husband would come to church. Ruben would come out of the Catholic Church. Liz would come out of the Catholic church. Thanks for praying.

Thoughts from Sandy | July 2022

Hello beautiful ladies of the Texas Conference,

As the long hot days of summer drag on, you undoubtedly look anxiously to cooler temperatures. To some of you, the external temperature seems almost like winter compared to the raging, volcanic eruptions taking place on the inside of you, specifically your mind!

The seemingly impossible tasks at work, conflicts in the home, division at church, all when combined with wars, famine, disasters of every kind, violence and carnage, makes you want to crawl back into bed until a good day decides to show up.

In spite of our walk with GOD, if the truth is to be told, we would prefer an entrance into heaven without the drama and pain, that seems to pervade our tiny little planet.

More and more, no one seems to escape the pangs of anxiety and worry; ok, let’s be honest, temporary depression. Even seasoned Christians and prayer warriors seem to be losing their faith and fight, in this evil, maligned world.

What are we to do? James 1:4 reminds us “to let patience have her perfect work, that you may be perfect, and entire, (complete) wanting nothing.”

When you are in a trial, you may feel as if you will never get through it. Remember that GOD, in HIS love for you, will never abandon you! JESUS weighed the circumstances of your trial before it got to you, in order that you may be able to bear it.

The testing of our faith works to make sure that we are ready and completely qualified to become bullet proof against all the enemy’s assaults.

GOD does not delight in your suffering or pain any more than what HIS own son JESUS Christ was permitted to bear in Gethsemane’s garden, Pilate’s judgment hall and Calvary’s cross.

The enemy seeks to test our loyalty to GOD yet, even through those painful moments, GOD stands near to ensure we are not completely knocked out of the boxing ring with one of satan’s TKOs.

So, count it all joy my dear sisters as “the working of your trial” is really intended to make you perfect, in JESUS Christ.

No, I’m not saying to pretend you’re not hurting, but claim the promises of GOD and continue to cling to the hope that is found in Christ. In the words of the apostle Paul “count it light affliction.”

The HOLY Bible gives us hope, in knowing that sin is soon to come to its end and all the things you went through and endured in JESUS name will work together for your good because you love and trusted GOD!

Stay blessed, beautiful and faith filled, my dear sisters!

Warm regards always,

Sandy Mars
