This week we'll be delving into Luke 22:1-6 at Common Grounds (Wednesday at 6:30 PM) and The Perk (Thursday at 9:30 AM). Both groups meet at the church, and child care is provided on Thursday mornings. Hope you're able to make it to one of these. And remember, we'll be continuing through most of the summer.
Our next special activity for June is a movie night on Friday, June 21st, at Amy's. We start at 7 PM with snackies that you all bring, and then we pick from a selection of movies. This is for women only, but feel free to bring friends along.
A huge thank you to all who came out Saturday to Lighthouse Book and Bible for my very first book signing for On the Threshold. The owners, Carl and Bernice, were pretty amazed by the turnout. Your love and support meant so much to both me and Christina. And those of you who have bought books from me privately are such a blessing too! I hope you all enjoy reading it as much as we did writing it!
Today is my 61st birthday, which leads me to contemplate this past year. I just want you younger ladies to understand that God isn't through with you until He's through with you! I never would have dreamed that at this age my first book would be published, or that I'd be so involved in the lives of many women through women's ministry. Nor did I ever, in my wildest imagination, think a granddaughter and great-granddaughter would be living upstairs from us! God leads us down many paths in the course of our lives, and they're not all easy or pleasant, but He is with us on each one of them. As it states in Isaiah 30:21, "Whether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying, 'This is the way; walk in it.'" My prayer is that in the years ahead I will continue to daily remove the ear wax so I can hear Him clearly.
