Ladies and Fellowship? Do We Have To?


Last week, some of the ladies of our church got together for some food and fellowship at Chick-Fil-A.  MMM!  It is extremely important for me to get around these ladies, be their friend and build godly friendships.  They are my sisters in Christ.

Maybe your church doesn't have many things specifically for ladies.  You can still have lunch with one of the ladies...invite a couple ladies over for coffee and cookies...hold a Bible study in your home.  It isn't how big or spectacular the ask is...it is just being a friend.

I have been working on the year for our ladies at Sierra View and I hope it will be a blessing to them.  My prayer is that many connect on a deeper level and their friendships become many.

We have a lady, Sue, who is currently holding a ladies small group - they are studying 52 women of the Bible.  Sue is a wonderful lady and I know these ladies that attend come away each week with more Bible knowledge and a bigger love for God.

This summer, I have planned to have a six week study/small group for the ladies.  I think they will glean so much from it as I just finished the book we will be doing!

We have our restaurant fellowships scheduled to yummy places like Qdoba and The Habit Grill.

We will have one month where we will do a service project - more details to come!

A few special events are up our sleeve for Mother's Day and Christmas!

And we will be going on a Women's Encounter in September!

All in all, these things are meant just to keep us busy.  They are meant to strengthen you and others.  I hope my ladies will join us in all these things and I hope you will do the same at your church this year!

You May Abound In Hope

Today I completed a devotional book by Candace Cameron Bure.  100 Days of Joy and Strength.  I was struggling last night.  Darkness seemed to overwhelm me.  The last day of this devotional gave me exactly the encouragement I needed to go another day. Here are the verses she shared from God's Word. "I wait for the Lord, my whole being waits, and in His word I put my hope."  Psalm 130:5 "We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not driven to despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed;"  II Corinthians 4:8-9 "As for me, I watch in hope for the Lord, I wait for God my Savior; my God will hear me.  Do not gloat over me, my enemy!  Though I have fallen, I will rise.  Though I sit in darkness, the Lord will be my light."  Micah 7:7-8 "I remain confident of this; I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.  Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord."...

Ten Tips for Sunday School Teachers

Ideas for Sunday School Teachers: 1.  Write a note to each student and mail it to their home. 2.  Visit the child in his home and bring a small treat. 3.  Make a special treat once a month for your students on Sunday. 4.  Have a Sunday School class activity on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon. 5.  Pray for your students. 6.  Have a monthly or quarterly contest for your students.  Include bringing their Bible, saying memory verses, attendance, etc.  Award small prizes. 7.  Have a special craft once a month. 8.  Rev up your teaching time!  Use props such as costumes, pictures, videos.  Make your lesson time come alive.  Teach your lesson 2-3 times during the week out loud – you will be amazed at how you will be able to teach it to your students – not just following the words in the book. 9.  After the lesson, be creative!  Students should not just be sitting and waiting for Sunday School hour ...
