Women of Feiva (Favour) Ministries

 

Since 2003, Reverend Yodie has passionately devoted herself to serving, teaching, and mentoring women in both secular and church communities. Her unwavering commitment led to the establishment of Women of Favour Ministry, a vital part of her itinerant ministry.

Across Australia and particularly in Melanesia, an unprecedented outpouring of the Holy Spirit has been transforming lives—especially among women, children, and families in Papua New Guinea.  Many more nations to come.

​

This divine movement became profoundly evident in 2015 when Reverend Yodie and Pastor Hans first traveled to Papua New Guinea, a journey they have continued to undertake. During these missions, the Holy Spirit brought about prophetic transformations, impacting men, women, and children in life-changing ways.

​

Like the hibiscus Reverend Yodie is driven by a deep desire to inspire women, reminding them that they are highly favoured in God's eyes. She encourages them to rise above their circumstances with the guidance and empowerment of the Holy Spirit.
