Sunday, September 4, 2011

Hello and we missed all that was traveling for the holiday weekend and hope that the rain didn't spoil the fun in the sun.  Yesterday, we began laying the foundation for the book that we will be covering for the next 6-8 weeks.  The title is Chasing Elephants Wrestling The Gray Areas of Life by Brent Crowe.  Although we did not actually begin the book we discussed that death and life are in the power of the tongue (Proverbs 18:21) and that as we begin to discuss these controversial issues of Christian life we should be mindful of this.  We pray that our words will give hope and encouragement and provoke thought as we begin this book discussion.  Should be a fun beginning for the fall months and if you happen to miss, you should be able to fall right back in place with the discussion of the book.  Hope to see you there.

Announcements  Ladies will meet at Kelly's house this Thursday evening, September 8, at 6:30 for dinner, dessert and planning for the new year.  Not all will be able to attend so I hope to meet again on the first Thursday of October - might be something we will start.  We can discuss it at our meeting.
