It was a blessing to just allow the Holy Spirit to lead us in our time of silence and also hear other people’s experiences. Silence and solitude refresh my soul and help me re-center myself to the next steps God has for me in this year. – Attendee

I see WOW! seminars as a process in my faith journey. They are a revelation from the Lord that comes through like moonlight through the pines. In this year of chaos, hurricanes, and suffering of all magnitudes, we take solace and comfort in knowing that God still speaks to us and is eager for us to do the same. – Ted H.

I am really grateful for the experience in this Soul Care Cohort. It has given me plenty of tools to help myself and others become more aware of the work of the Holy Spirit in our faith journeys. – Ajung S.

I was blessed by many things, among them the reflection at the very beginning (the passage that focused on Mary seeing the resurrected Jesus), having the company of a community to engage in the silent retreat, and having the time of silence and solitude with God. That was a much needed break from life and God has used it to draw me close to him once again. – Amy C.

It was great to quiet down and take time out of my very busy day to just BE. – Jasmine F.

What do you do if you’re a minister and nothing seems to be working out for you with regard to ministry? You seek help. I saw that WOW! had a discernment ministry and sought their help. My wife and I met with a group led by May Chin. During the course of our sessions, the group patiently listened, prayed, and helped identify a couple of reasons for my frustration at that time. They encouraged me to pursue what was in my heart, though at the time it did not seem like a real possibility. Now, two years later, I am about to venture into one of the ministries on my “wish list.” I will be going overseas to teach and encourage believers in the very country that God has laid on my heart for many years. – John L.

Honestly, I have nothing to compare it to. I guess it would’ve been nice to be out at a retreat center away from the city, but part of the worthy challenge was carving out a place of peace within one’s home during the covid-19 season. – Jonathan N.

This experience will help you see you are not alone in your walk with God of doing for Him vs. being with Him. It is a treasure which will enamor you back to a childlike faith and rekindle joy on having an expectant heart perspective of God! – Milly A. 

It was very helpful to have different ways to pray.  It was given in a simple way to follow and practice again. To be still and breathe, a great way to center myself and get into prayer. To not be rushed but intentional to prioritize that time. – Rachel G.

In this season of unimaginable change, the Holy Spirit is blowing…on purpose, in a direction.  The power of “spiritual direction” was experienced by me through WOW! and I was changed in almost unimaginable ways.  What a joy to humbly listen to the voice of God—heard and spoken through others. – Cindy C.
