Happy and Blessed New Year! I pray this year will be the best and brightest year yet! I pray it will be filled with much love, joy, peace, forbearance (patience), goodness, faithfulness and self-control that is the Fruit of the Spirit mentioned in Galatians 5:22-23.
I’ve been praying about my “One Word” for this year. I’m delighted to share that my word for 2020 is:
SHINE
The verse that comes to mind when I think about the word Shine is:
“You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden.Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house.In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.” (Matthew 5:14-16 NIV)
I’m looking forward to sharing how the Lord brings the word Shine to life in my life this year.
And I encourage you to Shine where God has placed you. May you Shine for Jesus and be a beacon of light and hope at home, work, school and in your community and beyond.
It’s tempting to want to shrink back and sit on the sidelines these days, but God is calling His people to arise and Shine for His glory.
If you are being blessed by Abounding Faith’s books, events, podcast and more and you’d like to Shine together this year, here are 5 wonderful ways to do so:

My “One Word” for this year has been “Surprise.” I have delighted in the big and little surprises the Lord has had for me this year.
I’d like to take a look back at some of the lovely surprises sprinkled throughout 2019. I hope you enjoy taking this trip down memory lane with me.
What a blessing to be invited back to speak at Chapel at Nyack College in February and to be part of two Meet the Author events in their library this year! You can read more about my visits in this blog post and this one.

What a privilege it was to lead the service for my friends at Central Delaware Trinity Covenant for the fifth straight year. You can read more about that blessed time here.
What a treat to get to teach Life Skills classes for my friends at The Bowery Mission’s Women’s Center! The two sessions were based on my book, By Faith. You can read more about my visit here. It was also a delight to get to speak at Chapel for the women and at The Bowery’s Tribeca site.
The Lord showed up in such a beautiful way at Abounding Faith’s BELOVED Women’s Conference, presented by Nyack College. And what a delightful surprise that the church was decorated for a wedding! You can read more about my third women’s conference and Abounding Faith’s 10th event here.

Other surprises this year included celebrating my connection to Apollo 11 and getting to meet Pastor Jim Cymbala of the Brooklyn Tabernacle at a gathering for Pastors and Leaders. For the first time, I also got to hear Ravi Zacharias and Anne Graham Lotz speak in person at my home church, Times Square Church.
Other notable moments from this year included producing my 15th episode of the “Abounding Faith for Today” podcast, marking the 1 st Anniversary of By Faith and writing my seventh article for Charisma‘s website.

Here’s what people are saying about By Faith:
“Nancy’s love for Jesus and her passion to share the Gospel with others is clearly evident on every page of this book. Journey with her around the world as she shares the adventures that shaped her faith and brought eternal rewards for many.” —Rochelle Traub, Our Daily Bread Ministries
“The psalmist wrote, ‘The Lord gives the word; the women who announce the news are a great host.’ Nancy Gavilanes is among that number sharing the Good News. Boldly and enthusiastically, she represents what obedience to God’s call can do—not for just the ‘called ones’ but for the people whose lives they will impact. Nancy’s testimony continues in her fourth book, with this recollection of short-term missions trips and travels to six continents, as well as her speaking engagements to a number of audiences, including the Nyack College campus community. By Faith is sure to encourage readers in their spiritual formation. They will learn, as Nancy did, that the Christian journey is ‘a walk by faith.’” —Michael G. Scales, EdD, President, Nyack College/Alliance Theological Seminary
“Nancy’s journey is sure to inspire. She takes you on a mission to see how God can do above your hopes, dreams, and imaginations. Let her encourage you as she shares her experiences and what the Lord has taught her through walking with Him. This book will encourage you to live the life God is calling you to.” —Chris Luppo, TV Producer/Manager Northeast Regional Director of the Christian Women in Media Association
“What an exciting. Spirit-filled, inspirational, faith-stirring book By Faith is! I couldn’t put it down once I began reading it and look forward to the next book by Nancy Gavilanes!” —Vivian Hernandez, Chaplain, The Bowery Mission’s Women’s Center
