Christmas greetings!
Christmas Greetings from the Girls' Brigade Worldwide office. You can see a picture of our desk above - nativity scene, Christmas tree and knitted camels! We wish you all a happy, safe and blessed Christmas 2014. May you know the peace of Christ in a special way at this time of year.
Christmas is also the time when we think about New Year, and the different possibilities that the coming year will bring. That is the theme of this newsletter. We have created a new section on our website focussed around Girls' Brigade's theme for 2015: Be Expectant! This page will have lots of resources to use both with leaders and girls, and will be added to over the year.
We encourage you to make use of this resource, keep visiting over the year, and let us know what you think. And let's together Be Expectant for what God is doing and saying in the world. We wish you a good start to 2015.

45 years of GB Ministry in Sabah
Fellowship: Asia
2014 was a year of real celebration for GB in the Sabah region of Malaysia. GB has been working amongst girls in the area (Sabah is where ICGB 2010 was held) for 45 years! Alongside their public celebrations during the year the team also looked for a centre to be their regional headquarters - and God has provided the funds to buy! Well done GB Sabah!
