Ladies Retreat/Dressed to be blessed

The Ladies Retreat was a smashing success, Over 200 woman for all over the state attended. Each group decorated their table and their selves. Our table was decorated by Jean McMahon in a japanesse decor, it was lovely. Some tables were decorated with shoes and purces. There was a doll table and a bear table. One table was decorated in music. We had a hat contest and you should of seen these hat that were made for this special occasion.

Mother's Day

Our Mother's Day Program went very well, the youth did a really invented rap and all age children were included. Some of the younger ones played guitars and danced. We had a song which was sung by three generation of woman. We focus our program on the prayer warriors we have in our life's. Many of course are our mother's but many are the woman of our church who have been examples to us all. We handed out Mother's Crown Pins along with the poem a Mothers Queen for each of our mothers. It was a very touching program, which we hope did honor to all our mothers.

Heart of Texas/ Story of forgiveness

We met tonight May 2, for our monthly Senior Night. We showed the documentary called the Heart of Texas. It is a story of forgiveness and how it changed the hearts of a whole town. I don't want to spoil it for anyone who hasn't seen it but I do recommend this short 1 hr. movie. We had a wonderful discussion after and shared several stories that were similar to the story we saw tonight. There was not a dry eye in the house.

Many woman shared their feelings for the women in their lives, it was a very touching time. We were served by some of the men of the church and they did a wonderful job. The entire banquet was wonderful, thanks to our Ladies Ministry Director, Jean McMahon. A good time was had by all.
