Pacific Fellowship
That all countries in the Girls' Brigade Pacific Fellowship will be united and equal partners in caring, sharing and in teaching of each other.
Girls’ Brigade Pacific vision:
To establish and grow Girls’ Brigade in every Pacific Country by 2015.
Greetings from International Vice President
Dear GB Friends,
Welcome to the Pacific Fellowship. The Girls’ Brigade is represented in 10 countries in the Pacific, each with their own unique culture (see list to left).
As a Christian Organisation we provide activities that will provide the girls with values and life skills, as they develop spiritually, physically, educationally and socially.
Communication would be the biggest problem in the Fellowship, even though all countries are contactable by email now; this is not always reliable with power outages and tele communications sometimes being down.
I praise God for the many Churches who have taken on Girls’ Brigade as a mission outreach in their Pacific countries. While membership has its highs and lows, everyone is encouraging young girls and women in their communities to “Seek, Serve and Follow Christ.”
While we all work on the same programme based on Luke 2:52, each country delivers this in different ways as they need to work within their own uniqueness and culture. Although uniforms may differ between our Pacific countries, it is the Girls’ Brigade Crest on that uniform that links us all together.
My prayer for the Pacific is that God will continue to encourage the girls and young women to take up the opportunities that Girls’ Brigade has to offer, with the ultimate goal of developing them for a life with Christ.
My heartfelt thanks goes out to ALL Leaders, Helpers, Chaplains and Supporters of Girls’ Brigade in the Pacific, your work is appreciated and I look forward to working further with you all.
God Bless,
Mrs Renelle Nealle,
IVP Pacific
