Konferensi Isteri, Nenek dan Ibu Diosis (KINIDOS) telah berlangsung dari 18-20 Jun 2018 di Katedral All Saints, Kota Kinabalu. Seramai 1689 wanita telah menyertai konferensi tersebut, termasuklah 78 peserta yang berumur 65 tahun ke atas. Memang dikagumi bagaimana kehausan dan kerinduan para peserta agar disegarkan dan dipulihkan oleh Tuhan mendorong mereka menyewa beberapa buah bas besar dan memandu kenderaan persendirian untuk datang ke Katedral All Saints.
Ada juga di antara peserta-peserta ini yang buat pertama kali datang ke Kota Kinabalu, lalu terjadi perkara-perkara yang boleh dikatakan lucu seperti peserta membuka selipar ketika masuk lif dan tersesat mencari rakan dalam kawasan Katedral. Walaupun demikian, para peserta sungguh diberkati melalui Firman Tuhan yang disampaikan oleh Bishop Datuk Melter dan pengkhutbah lain. Selain itu, mereka yang hadir juga diberi kesempatan oleh Tuhan untuk melihat betapa indah sebuah keluarga yang melayani-Nya bersama. Tuhan benar-benar telah memulihkan, menyegarkan dan memberkati semua peserta melalui konferensi KINIDOS.
The Diocesan Wives, Grandmothers and Mothers Conference (KINIDOS) took place from 18-20 June 2018 at All Saints’ Cathedral, Kota Kinabalu. 1689 women joined the conference, including 78 who were over 65 years old. It was truly impressive how the thirst and desire of the participants to be refreshed and restored by God led them to hire a number of large buses and drive their own vehicles to the Cathedral.
There were some who were visiting Kota Kinabalu for the first time, and so there were a few amusing incidents which took place, such as participants taking off their slippers before entering the lift and getting lost in the Cathedral grounds while searching for their friends. Nevertheless, the participants were very blessed by the Word of God which was delivered by Bishop Datuk Melter and other speakers. The participants were also granted an opportunity from God to see the wonders of a family united in serving Him. God truly restored, refreshed and blessed all the participants through this KINIDOS conference.
