July 7th Arevalo Women's Meeting

We had a delightful ladies' meeting in our Arevalo church yesterday. Allen was elected president of this eager group of ladies, so we are blessed by the prospect of being very active with this group all year. Each week, along with our devotional study on women in the Bible, we enjoy another type of enriching activity, such as crafts, singing, educational talks, etc.

This week the Bible study, led by Bill, focused on the compassion and hope offered in Luke 7, in the account of Jesus raising a widow's only son from the dead. During the activity time, we demonstrated how to cook chocolate chip pancakes - which were enjoyed by all.

Besides our core group of regulars, several new women showed up wanting to know how to sign up and pay for these meetings. They were so surprised when we said, "just come with open hearts!"

Please keep all these precious women in your prayers - along with the influence they may have in their families and community.
