My deepest apologies (I wonder how deep that is?) for not getting this post up earlier in the day. But it's Monday--what can I say? I've been in charge of the three grandkids since Thursday night. Last night it took one of them an extra long time to fall asleep as he was in pain. We all overslept this morning, but Josh didn't feel well enough to go to school. So my day has turned out differently from what I planned.
I'm sure that's never happened to any of you, right?! Days like this simply remind us that we are not in control of our lives, even though we may have a schedule all planned out. I hope you're learning, as I am, not to let chaotic days throw you, but to entrust them to the Lord's schedule. I glad He know's what He's doing!
This Wednesday at 6:30 is the beginning of our Common Grounds study entitled Self Talk, Soul Talk. Scroll down to last week's blog to get more info about the subject matter. There is no cost for this study, nor is there any homework. I believe in a guilt-free environment for Bible study. Now, if the Holy Spirit wants to provide a little conviction, that's one thing. But no guilt.
Just bring your Bible and a notebook, along with an open heart.
This is your last call to be able to attend Selah, this Saturday, September 25th, for the low price of $32, including lunch. I've sold the ten tickets I bought, but can order more through Thursday morning. So, if you'd like to go but haven't purchased tickets, give me a call and I can place an order for you. (971-285-6699). You can pay me by check at Common Grounds. Please make checks out to WVC.
Is anyone interested in attending the Women of Faith conference in Portland on October 8 & 9th? I haven't ordered the $89 tickets for that event, as first I need to know who wants them. Please let me know just as soon as possible, as I'll buy one just for myself if need be! :-(
We had a lot of interest shown for WOW providing classes to learn how to knit, crochet, and quilt. If any of you are well-versed enough to be able to teach any of those classes, please let me know.
By the way, there is now a WOW group on Facebook. Several of you have already signed up for it. Please let your friends know about it. Hope to see many of you on Wednesday night at 6:30.
Blessings,
Sherrie
