We have the FINEST models who are not just beautiful & glamorous they are also the sweet fragrances of Jesus.
In fact, such are the qualities of all the ladies in our much loved Women's Joy Fellowship (WJF). They are ambassadors of Christ who are passionate in sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ to the community at large through their ministry.
Though Pastor Joyce (Singapore) was the main "attraction" for the event, WJF made FULL use of the event to showcase other Christian ministries :) Kudos to them!
Everything WJF did that day was Kingdom related and Christ centered. The guests were literally SATURATED with the aroma of Jesus from beginning to end! Hallelujah!
Some photos from the event:

Here, guests can contribute financially to Pastor Joyce's other ministry in South Asia by supporting these cakes & crafts.
Here is sister Deborah sharing her AMAZING miraculous healing testimony all to the glory of God.

Our very EBC models!!!
Now coming back to the modeling part....though the high-light was on PEARLS...actually there in lies yet another Christ related truth...a gem of a truth...
It is interesting to note that the Bible uses Pearl to illustrate the immeasurable worth of the Kingdom of heaven in the Gospel of Matthew:
"Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant in search of fine pearls, who, on finding one pearl of great value, went and sold all that he had and bought it.
(Mat 13:45-46)
In more ways than one, we all are like merchants running our daily lives cutting deals hoping for maximum potential returns with our limited time & resources, are we not?
And more often than not, we pursue "profits" that are directly linked to attributes such as: health, wealth, self-esteem, status...etc. Well, nothing "wrong" with them per se, but do you know these are just MERE "trinkets" of this earthly life? Their ultimate value is only of worth in RELATIVE to their use.
It is lamentable that the world today is much consumed with these pursuits for SELF consumption. The accumulation & acquisition of trinkets have become the SOLE purpose & meaning of life for many.
This is the reason why the ministry of WJF is so important because they point people to that ONE PEARL of GREAT VALUE! And what is THIS pearl?
Indeed, I count everything as loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord. For his sake I have suffered the loss of all things and count them as rubbish, in order that I may gain Christ.
(Php 3:8)
May WJF be the Ministry of Reconciliation which through the proclamation of the gospel of Jesus Christ to reconcile unregenerate men back to God...to show them the IMMEASURABLE WORTH of Jesus Christ, who ALONE is worthy of our praise, worship & pursuit.
Praise the LORD for WJF!
All glory be to God!
