How Light Began

Leann Murray & Liz Jensen had been running the Woman's Ministry together in their local church for a while before they both started to sense that God wanted them to launch something new...what that new thing was though they had no idea!

In October 2023 after a time of prayer & fasting they went away to Raglan for a few days to seek God on this 'new thing' & Light was born.

At the end of those few days they had a name, twelve ministry divisions, & a slightly overwhelmed feeling at the magnitude of what Light could become.

Using their combined skills of design, marketing, finance, teaching, event coordination & administration they task by task on their days off, between work, family & church commitments, developed the division concepts, bought a domain, set up emails, designed an app, created a website, & kept growing the beginning divisions of Woman of Light & Sound of Light in the background.

In the last months of 2023 emails & domains were secured & the paperwork was started to register as a NZ charity.

By the end of 2024 the charity was registered & set up for tax, the bank account was opened, Woman of Light had monthly meetings & daily devotions running, & Sound of Light was writing & raising money to record it's first songs.  

In 2025 the app & website were created, & content was underway for seminars, teaching, a YouTube channel & more.  Light Prayers was launched with a small intercessory team & Light Testimonies began to be gathered.

In early 2026 Light is running it's first Light Festival, & then we will have our first seminars, & will launch Families of Light, Men of Light, Youth of Light, Children of Light, Light Teaching, & Light Commerce.
