God’s provision is in his promises. This was the theme for our 21st Birthday meeting.
As always, God sure did provide! The evening started with Diane Andrews presenting
a powerful testimony, on her journey, in trusting the Lord with his provision. This was
backed by some amazing scriptures all done in powerpoint presentation. It was as though
the Lord was giving his promises to each one of us in the room. Diane’s talk was
followed by Praise and Worship, where we were able to spend an amazing time
with the Lord soaking in all his promises. Roger and Rita Peterson then proceeded to officially cut
our 21st cake and each women took home with them a lovely card with
a piece of scripture from our Focal Point. Many women have commented on how
the piece of scripture they were given, relates to their present circumstances. God sure
does provide! Thank you God for your provision for South Auckland Dove for the past 21 years.

Seini Taimarangai - Remembering A Wonderful South Auckland Woman of God (November 2010)
All Saints day Seini was taken home to be with the Lord. I was on the South Auckland Dove Team with her for six years, and she was such a gift of love, faith, service and encouragement. Her hugs were amazing, she so tuned into what was happening in other peoples lives and yet she had a lot of struggles in her own, she just so trusted the Lord.
While I was on team with her, her eldest son, Solomon 22 died after a fight in Queen St. He lived for a short time in hospital, the grief was overwhelming, but it so touched all of us. The night before her funeral, when people were sharing, one of Solomon's friends got up and shared that Seini gathered his young friends around and said, "I want no retaliation, we will leave it to the Lord." this young man shared how it was right against young men's thinking but it impacted him, a seed was planted and he has never forgotten this wonderful lady.
May she Rest in Peace.
