May Mission Month – Influencer Lilias Trotter

Serena Carcasole released a book last year titled Amazing Women of Influence: Heart-Centred Female Warriors on a Mission to Change the World!

“Each of these Women of Influence has overcome adversity and triumphed by creating a life she loves. They have used their personal transformation to start businesses or practices that help others improve their lives. As a result, they have become visionaries and authorities within their respective fields.”

Isabella Lilias Trotter is one of those women of influence – although she does not appear in the book, nor would you likely know her name or her story.

Luke 24:47–49 (NLT) 47 It was also written that this message would be proclaimed in the authority of his name to all the nations, beginning in Jerusalem: ‘There is forgiveness of sins for all who repent.’ 48 You are witnesses of all these things. 49 “And now I will send the Holy Spirit, just as my Father promised. But stay here in the city until the Holy Spirit comes and fills you with power from heaven.”

The disciples have witnessed God’s plan unfold in Christ and now understand it, they are then commissioned to make it known.Lilias Trotter was one who took up the call to mission in Algeria.
