Let us rejoice and be glad and give him glory! For the wedding of the Lamb has come, and his bride has made herself ready.
Rev 19:7 NIV

What a glorious time we had in Louisville, Kentucky, at our 2009 Aglow Worldwide Conference! Our theme was, Lift Your Voice, Let it be Heard in all the Earth.  With 3,500 people from 103 nations in attendance, our voices certainly were and will continue to be heard in all the earth.

The most thrilling and majestic Voice heard at conference, however,  was that of the Lord. The underlying thread woven throughout the entire event, via music, messages, and prophetic expressions, was of the preparation of the Bride for the Bridegroom. Again and again, we heard this time of preparation and outpouring of Bridal love is to usher in the return of Jesus. The last several years, Aglow has been aware of these words being spoken over our ministry and this conference seemed like the culmination  of the beckoning call of the Lord in relation to our destiny. 

We will be giving a fuller report in the next weeks and months. Before that time however, I felt we needed to share with those of you who were not able to join us in Louisville, and have been looking at the photographs and reading with great interest the articles and blogs on our website, Aglow.org, and my new blog, Walk Toward the Light.

In closing, it is with a grateful and full heart that we approach the Thanksgiving holiday here in the U.S. How easy it is to rejoice and be glad and give Him glory. He is holding us in the sweetness of His presence and we know He will continue to lead us individually and corporately as we, the genderless Bride, continue to make ourselves ready in the days ahead.

Love and blessings,
Jane Hansen Hoyt
