follows. Peace is so important for us; we all wish to live in harmony. We are<br />

aware <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> conflicts in human minds <strong>and</strong> <strong>the</strong> waging wars on <strong>the</strong> face <strong>of</strong><br />

this earth. It is difficult to have peace <strong>of</strong> mind <strong>and</strong> seems impossible to end<br />

fighting <strong>of</strong> nations. It had become a vicious circle <strong>the</strong>re is violence because<br />

<strong>the</strong>re is no peace <strong>of</strong> mind . . . . <strong>and</strong> <strong>the</strong>re is no peace <strong>of</strong> mind because <strong>the</strong>re<br />

is restlessness around us. We, <strong>the</strong> women are capable <strong>of</strong> accomplishing<br />

so many things within <strong>the</strong> four walls <strong>of</strong> our homes. We are considered<br />

<strong>the</strong> peace makers, <strong>the</strong> cement, <strong>the</strong> delivers, <strong>the</strong> feeders, <strong>the</strong> mo<strong>the</strong>rs <strong>of</strong><br />

humanity. If we decide we want to have peace in our world, who can stop<br />

us?”<br />

Words <strong>of</strong> Thanks<br />

We cannot thank enough <strong>the</strong> Finance Team <strong>of</strong> World Council <strong>of</strong> Churches:<br />

Elaine Dykes, finance manager; Rosemarie Peclard, income accountant;<br />

<strong>and</strong> Yasmina Visin<strong>and</strong>, treasurer, for taking charge <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>FLC</strong> Fund with<br />

integrity.<br />

Many thanks to all current IC<strong>FLC</strong> Members who show caring support for <strong>the</strong><br />

administrative work that we do; to all IC<strong>FLC</strong> Members in <strong>the</strong> past who have<br />

unfailingly shared <strong>the</strong> <strong>FLC</strong> vision <strong>and</strong> have shared me <strong>the</strong>ir stories; to all <strong>FLC</strong><br />

country convenors who have remained dedicated to <strong>FLC</strong> <strong>and</strong> supportive to<br />

those who have followed <strong>the</strong>ir steps; to all churches <strong>and</strong> <strong>FLC</strong> women who pray<br />

<strong>and</strong> set aside least coins for <strong>the</strong> love <strong>of</strong> Christ <strong>and</strong> his mission. “May <strong>the</strong> grace<br />

<strong>of</strong> our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit.” (Galatians 6: 18)<br />
