At that time you only joined once you got married. I\u2019m glad that has changed, and single women are welcome to join. I remember the standard of achievement and all that our Auxiliary accomplished by using it. As time went by, Auxiliary became more flexible in its rules but never in its purpose. It has always existed to help women find their place in the Great Commission.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0in 0in 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman';\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0in 0in 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman';\">I liked the changing of Woman\u2019s Auxiliary to WAC because it better emphasizes what we, as FWB women, are to be\u2014Women Active for Christ. In prayer, action and study, we must stay active in the service of the Lord. Missions is the heart of WAC. We must always be willing to pray, give or go to promote the gospel.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0in 0in 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman';\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0in 0in 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman';\">Through the Creative Arts Contest that WNAC sponsors each year, I found God\u2019s will for my life. I may not be a prolific writer, but since 1973, God has given me opportunities to use writing as a tool of ministry.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0in 0in 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman';\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0in 0in 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman';\">Through the years in WAC I have been privileged to serve in various capacities on the local and district level. For the past year I have been writing devotions for the Together With God blog. This has helped me dig deeper into God\u2019s Word. None of this would have been possible if I hadn\u2019t taken advantage of the opportunities of service available to me (and women just like me) through WAC.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-indent: 0.5in;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman';\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0in 0in 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman';\">Sue Winchester<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0in 0in 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman';\">Missouri<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0in 0in 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman';\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0in 0in 0pt;\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; color: black; font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman';\">PRAY TOGETHER:<\/span><\/strong><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; color: black; font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman';\"> Pray for and encourage the directors of our FWB Children&#8217;s Homes.<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman';\"><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I joined WAC back in 1967 when it was known as Woman\u2019s Auxiliary.
