Lady Huntingdon

A great example to the women in the church is Lady Huntingdon who was influential during the English Reformation of the 18th century. She was a great promoter of George Whitefield and John Wesley. She used her high position for full effect for the gospel. She promoted the gospel to the servants in her house and she promoted the gospel to the royal family. Money and things did not mean much to her, but she used her goods for the glory of God. For example, she founded no less than 200 chapels and mission stations in England; in 1828, nearly forty years after her death, there were 35,000 people regularly attending these places of worship, and they were cared for by 72 ministers of the gospel.
