Well, another East Coast Ladies Retreat has come and gone! A special THANK YOU to the ladies (and men!) of Parkers Chapel Free Will Baptist Church in Greenville, NC for being our host church. I know that a lot of prayer, time, hard work and effort went into this.
What a wonderful time of fellowship in the Lord! There were 700 women there. Wow! That's alot of women in one place!
Along with the thought provoking, soul challenging and "getting our toes stepped on" sessions, there were also times of laughter. Since the theme was "Southern Grace", the focus was on life in the South, with a couple of good-natured "Yankee" jokes dished out here and there (hey! wait a minute! I'm a originally aYankee!). But, it was all in love and good, clean fun. Oh, yeah, and LOTS of shopping! Lunch was also a delicious "southern" affair of fried chicken, green beans and good ole "sweet" tea.
The sessions were:
1) Becoming a Proverbs 31 Woman in the 21st Century-This message was brought to us by Pastor Williams.
2) Our Verbal Gifts-about what we say and how we say it affects our Christian testimony and others.
3) Attitude Check!-Our attitudes towards life and circumstances and how we react-Ouch!
4) Keeping a Quiet Heart
5) The Cost of Grace-This was the teen session, but it still blessed and challenged me when I listened to it.
6) Busy but Balanced
