WOWgroup Global Fellowship~Family Fun Day



One of the greatest things that WOWgroup Global Fellowships is discovering is that Christian Fellowship is very much needed in order to make our families stronger.
In Acts 2:42 we learn that the early church devoted itself to “fellowship.” Fellowship was a very important part of their reason for meeting together. It was one of their objectives. But what does true fellowship mean?

Fellowship may mean that you have something in common, and that you may have the same purpose. "True Christian Fellowship" is simply having the ability to love the way Christ loves. It is having unity amongst one another, it is having communion with the Holy Spirit and allowing the Lord to guide us with all biblical truth.

WOWgroup Global Fellowships understands that the first ministry begins at home.
We are discovering together that we must invest more time with our loved ones, be more patient with them first, before pouring it into the lives of others. We are learning how to serve our family members in the name of God.

We are a light to the world, Jesus Christ lives in us and has given us grace. Those at the bowling alley today saw us laughing, helping our special needs children, cheering one another. Instead of losing our patience, throwing up our hands we are learning how to treat our family members the way we want them to treat us.

WOWgroup Global Fellowship~Family Fun Day is more richer and deeper than just a social gathering, it is our first ministry.

Miracle of the Moment




WOWgroup Global Fellowship NY shared many moments today. We celebrated birthdays and a Mime Praise Dance. Minister Tanya and son Andrew Merced dedicate this mime first to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. We would also like to dedicate this mime dance to Minister Lillian Altreche & Briana Dargan & Reverend Erick Cruz Smith. We would also like to dedicate it to all our WOWgroup family and friends.

WOWgroup Global Fellowship NY prays that it will bring you joy, laughter and remind you to hold onto(Click here if you would like to see the Miracle of the Moment).

Minister William Merced Jr. reminded us that Jesus' road to the resurrection was not an easy one. Jesus relied on His Father's will and purpose. Minister William Merced Jr. reminded us that even though Jesus was the son of God He felt sorrow, depressed, hopeless, and abandoned during the last days, however, Jesus did not rely on His emotions, but on the Father's will.
We too must stay focused on the Father's will and that is to go out and share the Good News and not rely on our own will.

Dress for the Cause



By William Merced Jr.

WOWgroup Global Fellowships Men’s Retreat was a transforming and liberating time for all who gathered. When the men of God unite and seek the Lord’s face something always happens. WOWgroup Global Fellowships Men’s Retreat at Blue Mountain allowed us to put our guard’s down and allowed the Lord to do His work in us. As each one of us let down his guard the Lord was able to transform both spiritually and mentally, because we were open to whatever God wanted. God touched us all in a special and individual way. The men laughed, cried, talked, and learned how to have fun with one another. It was just a relaxing and peaceful weekend. The men learned that we each needed to be careful of the spiritual garment we put on whether they are sinful or righteous garments. The messages were taught in very creative and unique ways. We are looking forward to the next WOWgroup Global Fellowships Men’s Retreat.

Intercession Changes Lives




WOWgroup Global Fellowship NY was reminded of the greatest intercessor of them all ~ Jesus Christ. Minister William Merced and son Andrew created a skit based on Carmen's song The Courtroom: Mission 3:16 and Revelation.

WOWgroup Global Fellowship NY's mission is to build up families and communities where everyone feels accepted, supported, challenged, and affirmed. In addition, our special needs population is proving time and time again that all of us have gifts and talents that God can use. Thank you Andrew for showing us that no matter what All things are possible with God!

If you would like to see Andrew's Skit click here: The Courtroom

Minister Tanya Merced mentioned 3 points we could learn from Abraham's Intercessory Prayer.

1. Boldness (Confidence) we need to be confident before the Lord in order to ask God to change His mind or His action. Ephesians 2:18

2. The Lord's Character and Word - In order to appeal on behalf of others we need to know God's attributes.

For great examples of intercessors in the bible read:
Exodus 32:9-14 Daniel 9:4-19 Amos 7:2-6

3. Persistence-Continue praying until the answer is given. Luke 11:5-13; Luke 18:1-8
