Debi-Fe Freedom Retreat 2002
A Special Message from Lady Anne Odurukwe: Welcome to Deborah International Women's Fellowship (Debi-Fe). For some of you this is your first opportunity to hear about us or to attend our Freedom regional retreat. We thank you for your coming and you're especially welcome in our midst! Just take time to enjoy the freedom we have in Christ. The vision is that you will find place in Christ, motivated and trained to fulfill your chosen vocation more acceptably. Debi-Fe was born out of a "Mid-Night Cry' about eleven years ago when my husband and I were pasturing a church in one of the most remote villages in Nigeria. After that God spoke to us vividly that the same cry is going on today in the families, in the churches and on the streets. But they can be free; the answer is "FREEDOM IN CHRIST.' For if the Son shall set us free, we'll be free indeed. Women are specifically designed by God to meet the needs of women. As women, we understand the heart cries of our fellow women around the world where freedom has been on fire. As a woman, you must rise and join hands with overcoming women of Deborah International Fellowship and declare your freedom in Christ. You are welcome to our Freedom Retreat 2002. Remember you are Jesus V.I.P.; therefore, don't miss this retreat, for this is your time. Sister Anne Odurukwe (President of Debi-Fe)
