The International Women's Conference 2010 held in Trinity Methodist Church in Kuching involved over 900 women, participants as well as volunteer helpers and organisers.
The evening started with a prayer by Deaconess Eleanor Goh followed by a time of music worship led by Sarah Lasung. Reverend Margareth Falls spoke on breaking the bondage of fear and led us in a time of ministering.
For those wondering why so much press on IWC 2010's Fashion Show
Someone wrote into our blog commenting that there was a lot of information put in covering the fashion show. I'd like to address this comment which will help the reader understand.
By the way, thank you to Ms. Tan for pointing this out and making the comment. It's good to elaborate and remind our readers and IWC 2010 participants the reason for our Fashion Show Gala Dinner.
All the proceeds from the Fashion Show Gala Dinner, in which Edric Ong, a Kuching architect-fashion designer will be present along with 29 Kuchingites turned IWC 2010 models will model Edric's creations, will go to Breakthrough Network Centre Bhd and other mission works like Living Waters in Indonesia.

7th August 2010 A FINAL meeting with the working committee
It is simply amazing to see what started as 2 women's vision has become a shared vision for so many ladies and a few men for this upcoming International Women's Conference 2010.
On this morning, t-shirts for the working committee were distributed and we all gathered together to pray for every aspect of the conference. After a time of prayer, Joyce came in to make sure we all understood each and every one of our roles and responsibilities from toilet duty cleanliness, to car park, to ushering, to sound, to powerpoint, to MC, to photography, to food and beverages, to decorations.
It was nice to finally put the faces to the names as many of us were working via email the whole time.
We know that God is going to do something beautiful during this conference. He's going to break us from our bondages and free us to worship Him in Spirit and in Truth.
Ladies, let us love one another with the love of Christ. Smile at everyone you see throughout the conference and bless each other. God made us for His glory and to bless others. Let us honour God by loving others as Jesus loves us.
