1 IMD NEW YEARS NEWSLETTER WINTER 2015 O Lord, Our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth! Holy Greetings in all sincerity and love to our Beloved Chief, Pastor Bonner and Presider Apostle Sanders, Apostle Board, Board of Bishops, Board of Presbyters, IMD Officers, Staff and all of our dear Mothers and Saints of the Most High God: I m so grateful to God for bringing us through the year, 2014, into a another New Year,2015; some have come through many trials, disappointments, and much sorrow, but, through it all, He has not left us alone. We re still here by the Grace, and Mercies of God; not to nurse our aches and pains of the past, but, to keep our Eyes Focused on Our Lord, Jesus Christ. As we enter the year 2015, I will, We will Yet Praise Our Great and Mighty God and Magnify His Name, for He is the Only Savior of the World; The Fountain of Living Waters, Spiritual Waters that flows from The Father above. In this coming New Year, what can we do to Grow, move Forward, Upward and Onward? Let us Empty, ourselves of those things that Tear down, Hinder, and Destroys, let us purge ourselves through the Word and Cleansing, Healing Power of Jesus Precious Blood. Let us Fill-up, with More of God s Love, Kindness, Faith, Wisdom, Prayer, Caring and Sharing, and putting into Practice by being more Givers, than Takers. Habakkuk 3:1,2; -[Prayer]; Lord, I have heard the news about you, I am amazed at what you have done, Lord, do great things once again in our time, make things happen again in our own days, even when you are angry, remember mercy. [TEB] Lord, Renew, Refresh, Revive, Restore Rebuild, through the Power of your Holy Spirit, in Jesus Name; Lord do a Greater work In us and through us, all for Your Glory. My dear Mothers and Sisters, we have a serious task on our hands, to maintain our Walk and Stand in and on the Word of God, to Walk in Obedience and in Alignment with the Ever-Living Word of God. In a day like today, when many of our women are striving to stand in the place and position of men, women are becoming Apostles, Bishops and Pastors, we don t judge them; but, as COOLJC Apostolic Women, we too, are Blessed and Highly Favored, we don t need a Title to speak or teach as holy women of God for the furtherance of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, for we are all His Ambassadors. COOLJC Women, let us Support Our Holy Men, Standing By, Standing Beside, Standing Behind Giving them the support they need to be successful, in Christ Jesus Our Lord. Why can t we walk in Humility, Love and Submission, all in alignment to the Blessed Word of God? WE don t have to walk in front of the Men of God; God has given us a place that no one else can fill;

2 God has given us the Passion and Compassion to Care, To Give, and Understanding beyond our comprehension. My beloved Sisters, in Christ, let s move Forward in Purpose, Humility and Love, building up one another, Striving to please God, Lifting up our Lord and Savior, Growing, Glowing, showing forth His Praises as we Earnestly Contend for the Faith that was Once Delivered unto the Saints.; IN THE SERVICE OF THE LORD, Mother Mildred D.
