Good Times, Good Food, Good Fun!
July 31, 2006
Today was our weekly playdate, which is hosted at my house every other week. We had a wonderful time! Total there were 7 moms and a bazillion kids! It was really nice to listen to all of the conversations, and watch our children play! My new neighbor came over (she isnt in the pictures) with her son who is autistic. I really enjoyed fellowshipping with her - Its nice to have a kindred spirit in the neighborhood who has a special needs child (and she homeschools!)
All in all it was a great time- I am so very excited at what this group holds and am already thankful for the friendship it has already provided for me.
Tomorrow night is our coffee night. There are about 12-15 women coming to that at the present moment. I think what is most exciting to me about this adventure is watching all of these relationships form. We sat in the living room this morning and chatted for hours. Some in the kids bedrooms, others in the kitchen, but the conversations were just flowing! It is a very refreshing experience for me.
Our churches young family homegroups start up on the 18th ( we are hosting it) which will also be another avenue to minister to young families. I am so very excited about the things the Lord has set up for us, and our church. We were just approved to start renting one of the local elementary schools, which was a huge answer to prayer.
Ill post more on that topic later, I have alot to share regarding our church, and Mark & I’s hopes and desires for the ministry we have started there. Very exciting things!
I hope that your Monday was great!
