I AM series expands with new devotional for women

Apr 1, 2025 | News

The Australian Union Conference (AUC) Women’s Ministries department has launched I AM Women’s Devotional Volume 2, the second instalment in a devotional series created to support personal reflection and small group discussion.

Compiled by Pastor Sylvia Mendez, AUC Women’s Ministries and resource development director, the book features a collection of devotions by women of faith from across Australia and New Zealand. Each reflection explores an aspect of God’s character and ends with questions designed to encourage personal application.

A set of affirmation cards accompanies the book, with each card corresponding to one of the devotional’s I AM statements—such as I AM wanted, I AM healed and I AM Wonderful.

“As I visited events across Australia—from Big Camp to women’s retreats and Converge—I kept being asked when we were planning to release a second volume,” said Pastor Mendez. “It was these requests, from women both young and older, that inspired us to develop a new series of I AM statements and invite local women to once again write from their personal experiences.”

“It is my prayer that this resource will be a blessing to the many women—and even men, I’ve heard—who dive into these real stories of God’s anchoring love in the ups and downs of life,” she added.

I AM Women’s Devotional Volume 2 is available from Adventist Book Centre stores or online.
