Wow! Look at this beautiful basket! Thank you to all of you who contributed baby items for Tonya and Karissa today at MIC! What a blessing! Also, a big thank you to the "Crafty Ladies" at Cornerstone for the adorable prayer blankets and nursing covers! Isn't it gorgeous?!Katie Rockett shared her creative side with us and walked us through this fun craft. Great sticky fun!
While we worked on our craft, we had Anita Renfroe on the screen.

She's hysterical...here's a sample...

A message from Pastor Greg:

Dear Moms and Grandmothers,

On January 30, 2010 we will be hosting a very special conference entitled "A Passion For Jesus." This one day conference is especially targeted to young ladies ages 12 through college age. Moms and grandmothers are encouraged to attend with their daughters.

There's plenty of time to register, and we'll provide brochures and the opportunity to do that over the next couple of months, but I would encourage you to go to their website and check it out, then put it on your calendar as a priority. This one day event will have a lasting impact on your daughter / granddaughter. It is led by other young ladies they can really identify and connect with, and the relational and spiritual implications are huge.

Go to http://www.apassionforjesus.com/ and check it out. Bruce will share more about the conference as the time draws closer, but I know how busy all of our schedules can be and want to get it into your calendars now so you will not miss it!

Pastor Greg

What a fun and diverse group of ladies we had with us at MIC this past Tuesday! Thank you for spending your morning with us!

Our "homework" last week was to purposefully look for ways to cherish and prize our husbands. We were challenged to focus on the good and praiseworthy things that our husbands do instead of dwelling on the less important things like the laundry in the corner, the toilet seat up or the endless "to do" list that he can't keep up with.

Ellen Bland led our study and did a wonderful job! We had lots of laughs and we are so thankful for her.

Next Tuesday we will be presenting 2 moms with baskets full of baby items. Karissa is a first time mom and Tonya will be welcoming her 7th baby soon! If you are able, could please bring in baby items for this occasion? Diapers, baby wipes, onesies, toys and such would be a blessing to these ladies.

What a great God we serve! We pray that you are enjoying your mornings out with "Moms In Christ".

Have a wonderful weekend and praise God for the things He has done!
