A Whole New World!

Hey, there! This is my very first time as a blogger, let's see how it goes. We are indeed excited about our upcoming Women's Retreat and the way things are unfolding for us. We have a terrific planning team in place - if you'd like to help us, let me know! "Courageous Hearts" is our theme, realizing that no matter what age we are, where we come from, what our vocation is - we have a God-inspired adventure to live and an invitation to step out in courage and live it. It's one of the many things that we share across generations. Stayed tuned for more info to come - for now, save the dates - April 30 - May2 and plan to join us for the fun!

Our First Planning Meeting .....

Yesterday was our first meeting, a rather late start for planning this years retreat. Lori Clanton is our go to girl and we've gotten used to relying on her for a LOT of the organization. Lori won't be available this year and Lorraine put out a plea for help. Just 4 days before we could even get together God opened the door for her and an idea sprang forth. I'm hoping Lorraine will blog about the experience, but it was pretty exciting for me to see the ideas come forth at the meeting Sunday, as we all began to see God's plan for our retreat. I think this year will be new and different, with a focus on building the relationships between women generationally. We will look at the story of Ruth...
Our next meeting is February 28th, 11:00 am in the Library.
