July's Newsletter

Hello Friends,

I miss seeing so many of you weekly. Here is the latest news for you to enjoy. Much of it has been in the Protestant News….some has not.

BETH MOORE IS COMING!
Heights Baptist Church is hosting a Simulcast of Living Proof Live from Kentucky. The event will be on 1 – 2 August. Tickets are $35 and can be purchased by calling either Linda or Lori at 224-8222. More info is available here Or on the PWOC blog.

If you would like to attend with any others going from PWOC, email me and I’ll try to connect you. If you need a ride, email.

PROJECT NIGHTS
We will NOT be having project night this Friday. I will be out of town and Debbie is ill (prayers appreciated). We will not have project night in August – but will resume in September.

FAREWELL GIFTS/ASSEMBLY NIGHT
Ladies, if you have a recipe to include for the farewell gift we are making for members would you please email those to me at gafbpwocpres@yahoo.com You may also give hard copies of your recipes to Vera at the 10:00 service.

We will meet on Friday, 25 July at 5 p.m. to assemble the gifts. We will provide a quick dinner.

If you have 6 x 6 page protectors (with a hole for a ring), stickers, cardstock, stamps, scrapbooking paper etc that you’d like to donate for use in assembling the gifts….bring them that night. If you plan on donating page protectors please let De’Etta know so that she doesn’t purchase more than we need. Watch the Protestant News for more details…or for latest breaking news check out the PWOC blog.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE – Grapevine, TX
13 – 16 November. We will be taking a group. Here’s a link for more info. http://www.pwoconline.org/ConferencesTraining/FF/FFHome.html I also hope to get a little promotional clip up on the PWOC blog before I leave for the weekend. It’s not too early to begin saving time and pennies.

Central Region Website
Some of you know that I’ve been designated the Central Region Web Weaver. What this means is that I channel info from all the installations in our region to the International website. The website is in a state of flux…if you go here and click on “recent events” or “sharing in the heartland” you’ll see slide shows and photos from recent events around the region….and um…since I AM the central web weaver you will find Goodfellow featured quite prominently. I’ll be making contacts at Leadership Weekend this weekend and hope to have more installations represented soon. The photos of Rachel with her pink princess cowboy hat would be so COOL….but I won’t post them to the website or blog without your approval, dear Rachel.

PWOC BLOG?
Glad you asked. This has been in the works for a long time. I was given approval and set up a Goodfellow PWOC blog yesterday.Check it out. Feel free to email me with ideas, questions etc. If news pops up (like the Beth Moore thing) it will STILL be in the Protestant News, it will still be in the newsletter but it may be on the blog first. LOL The blog will have our newsletters, photos of events, devotionals, info about future events…. Visit it, comment, check it out – you’ll be pleased…I think. The internet appeals to the younger generation as a way of gathering info. I hope that this will also be a way that ladies moving here will find out about us before they arrive. I JUST began adding things yesterday – so check back often. Soon, I’ll have photos and a blurb about our trip to Fredericksburg on the blog. If you want a table of contents – check the right column where you’ll see “our pages”….click on past events or whatever you are looking for. LOL

I would love to have you share YOUR favorite PWOC Memory, a devotional, a tip or recipe.....contact me at gafbpwocpres@yahoo.com if you would like to submit blog entries.

Enjoy the “lazy days of summer”. I look forward to visiting with you this summer and joining up again for Bible Study in the fall. BTW, our study books for next year are trickling in. Debbie has some great plans for events…..it promises to be a fun year at PWOC.

Choosing Joy,
De’Etta

We are an inter-generational group of Christian women who gather to grow closer to God, support one another in our daily lives and have some good old-fashioned TX fun!

2009/2010 Verse

"But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light; who once were not a people but are now the people of God, who had not obtained mercy but now have obtained mercy."
1 Peter 2:9-10(NKJV)

Secret Sister Summer

For the summer, we exchanged cards in order to pray for one another and to anonymously encourage one another.

Please lift your Secret Sister up in prayer daily. Feel free to send her cards, verses, funnies, whatever the Lord moves you to do. But remember... Keep it anonymous!

At the Fall Kick-off we will find out who are Secret Sisters are so we can thank them and follow up on those goals and prayers!

"My purpose in writing is to encourage you and assure you that what you are experiencing is truly part of God's grace for you. Stand firm in this grace." 1 Peter 5v12

Note from Christina on June 9~
Hello Sweet Sisters!

How is your summer going so far? Are you finding sweet notes of hope and love from your Secret Sister? Are you remembering to share hope and love with your Secret Sister? Here we are, already into June. This summer will fly by before we know it, and yet the time will have been mostly separated from our Sisters! Remember to lift her up in your prayers, and as time allows, please try to send her a token of your love in Christ for her!

God bless you, Ladies! Our Lord is moving within our group! See you all, very very soon!
