We had a great women's team who came down here in October. There were 8 women who came on this trip. The picture above is missing dear Dorothy. She had to leave a day early so she wasn't in this picture. In this picture starting with with back row: Me, Callie, Nancy, Donna, Candy. Front row: Sarah, Kaila, Allison and Janelle.
We had LOTS of laughs and good times with this team but we also got a lot of work accomplished. We held 3 craft nights in our home. We had a great turn out each night and we were more pleased with the relationships that were formed.
The last two nights we held conferences for women in a local neighborhood that we are targeting. The topics were grieving the loss of a loved one and raising children. The women who came on the trip were the speakers and Erika from the church, translated them into Spanish. These lessons were VERY good. I was thinking they would be great for everyone to listen to. Preston has uploaded them to our church blog
I have attached the link and the topics below. When you get a chance check some of them out. I am sure they will bless your life like they did mine!!
Grieving by: Dorothy
Grieving by: Nancy
Disciplining with love by: Janelle
Putting rules and limits on your kids by: Candy
Being a Mom in difficult times by: Donna
Overall, the trip was amazing. We are still trying to follow up with the relationships that were made. We are SO grateful how God does answer our prayers and how He totally showed up and changed our lives. Now, we pray for those women who came. We pray their lives will be drawn to the truth and that He will be evident in their lives.
Thank you women from Second!! You will never know the impact you had on the Kingdom. May God continue to use each of you everyday like He did while you were here!! We love you all and we were grateful to have had the opportunity to work hand in hand on the fields together.
