Wonderful Weekend Women's Retreat!

This beautiful bag was the signature bag for this year's retreat. Isn't it beautiful? EVERY YEAR, a woman in the Iraan community makes a signature bag for every participant in the women's retreat! They are VERY collectable! What a loving thing to do for her sisters in Christ!




We were encouraged to write what was on our hearts in terms of prayer requests to God on hot-pink post-em's and place them on a cross. Later we were reminded that God IS in charge, so we should let go of all the stress related to holding on to things over which we have no control. Trust God, and let go! We enjoyed great music, a wonderful retreat program and some terrific fellowship. Thanks be to God!!!
