new Bible Study

Posted by amyla324

Jan 20

The Desperate Housewives will be beginning a new study on Monday, Jan 23.  We meet at the Church downstairs near the nursery.

We will be studying The Five Love Languages of Children.  Although these same principles could be applied to any relationship.  Gary Chapman has written several books on the same subject.  I have already taken part in the original Five Love Languages as a Bible Study twice, first as a ladies study while we were living in Virginia and then as a couples study here at Kirkville.

We meet from 9:30 am -11:30 am.  The first part of our Study time is to be devoted to sharing from our own devotional time and prayer.  The 2nd part will focus on the book The five Love Languages of Children.

If you are interested I’d like to invite you to join us. :)

Carols of Christmas

Posted by amyla324

Dec 4

The Ladies luncheon was glorious.  The tables were beautifully arrayed with all manor of Christmas decor, each representing a particular Christmas Carol.  A wonderful time of  fellowship, joyous sound of the season and remembering what Christmas is all about in the first place.

The birthday of two precious little girls was celebrated, who happen to have Christmas time birthdays.

Check out the photo album on the side bar for a few pictures from this and other ladies events!  If you request to become a member you can also add your own pictures from the events.  It would be a blessing to see other ladies’ photos as well! :D

Ladies Retreat was wonderful! It fulfilled my expectations and more.  It was a wonderful time away, to commune with God, as well as bunches of other Ladies. :)   Our speaker, Kim Fowler was great.  She spoke to our hearts, encouraging and challenging us.   Saturday night all the Kirkville Ladies gathered in the bunkhouse for a time of fellowship.


A group shot of all the Kirkville Ladies

You can view more photos if you click on the photo album link on the side bar.  If you were a Kirkville Lady at retreat and have your own pics to contribute you can do so by requesting membership to the photogroup.  Then you should be able to add you pictures to the group.  Or you can get a CD of your pictures or your actual camera to me and I can add them for you. ;)

Mark your calendars, next years Retreat is sure to be spectacular as well.  If you have yet to go, this is your time!! :D

looking for a good read?

Posted by amyla324

Sep 20

This afternoon I finished the 2011 Wesleyan Women book selection.  Same Kind of Different as Me by Ron Hall and Denver Moore.   I picked it up at the last meeting.  I found it delightful and inspiring.

It is the story of two men who come from completely different backgrounds.  Could not be farther from each other really.  The first is an affluent white man.  The second an illiterate homeless black man.  It is intriguing to read about the challenges each face and the true friendship which develops between these two men.  It makes you think about those people you might pass every day on the street with out giving a second glance or even a thought.  It shows the power of God, and the prayers of His people to bring about change in the world around us.

This is my own personal view of the book.  I am interested to hear  others views as well.  I debated about whether the entry was more appropriate for the Library blog or this one.  In the end I choose this one as it is the current book selection for the Wesleyan Women.  Once it has made its rounds through the women it will be added to the Church Library.  I encourage you to take the time to read it. :)
