The Antiguan district of the Wesleyan Holiness Church gathered here. They celebrated the accomplishments of their women. Members from Wesleyan churches all over the island attended. They were there to support the women leaders being recognized.

Pastor Alleyne lauded the Antigua district. She praised them for honoring women who serve their communities. She noted that women’s contributions extend beyond their homes. Many are leaders impacting the nation. Teachers mentors and other professionals use their experiences to make a difference. These women sacrifice to promote the well-being of others. They stand in the gap. Women in the marketplace are committed to serving.
Pastor Alleyne encouraged the women to find their Ruth. She referenced the biblical story of Naomi and Ruth. This story represents loyalty faithfulness and blessings. It highlights mentoring and learning between generations. Ruth’s loyalty to Naomi shows the importance of supporting loved ones. Both women displayed faith in God’s plan. Their story shows faith guides us through difficult times.
Pastor Alleyne addressed older women. She cautioned them against thinking their time was over. She urged them to pour into younger women. She also encouraged younger women to seek wisdom from older women. Many miss opportunities to learn from those with experience. Ruth was dealing with her own grief she reminded them. Even in that state God used her.
