Mom's Group Meets Wednesday!

We will be meeting this Wednesday and discussing Faithfulness.  Please come ready to share an example of faithfulness; from the Bible, a book, or from your life.  I also thought that since it is the day before Thanksgiving, if you have a favorite recipe, craft, or anything that you like to do with your family, please bring it with to share!  See you all in a couple days!

Coffee Night in January

I added a coffee night for January.  I know that Mom's group doesn't meet in January, but that doesn't mean we can't meet for a night out and to spend time with one another!  So mark your calendars for January 13th!

Fun Day Shopping!

I am so glad I got to spend some time with Ale, Vicki and Nanette shopping in the Dells!  I had fun looking around at all the stores and finding a few good deals!  We will have to go again, perhaps when it is a little warmer out.  And we will have to plan for a whole day of shopping to make sure we hit all the stores. 
I want to say thanks to Candace for giving us the coupon books, I know I was grateful that I could use a couple of them!

Shopping Trip to Tanger Outlets

Christmas is only 41 days away!  Time to get started with your Christmas shopping! We are planning a shopping trip to Tanger Outlets in the Dells for this Saturday, November 20th.  I am thinking we could go up right after lunch, perhaps meeting at the outlets around 12:30 or 1:00.  Then we have all afternoon to shop and can enjoy dinner together before coming back home.  Please let me know if you are interested in coming and if you would want to car-pool.  Hope to see you there!

Self-Control

As I shared with many of you, self-control is a fruit that I pray for every day!  For those of you who were not able to come that Wednesday here are a few things that we discussed.
Proverbs 25:28 "Like a city whose walls are broken down is a man who lacks self-control."
"Any out-of-control area in our lives, no matter how big or small, is an open invitation to the enemy.  Believe me, he has memorized every strength and weakness in our lives.  He is always on the lookout for that one crumbling section of your protective wall, that one out-of-control area, where he will enter and play havoc in your life.  His weapons are your greatest temptations.  Your wounds are guilt, shame, frustration, and failure; his goal is to hold you captive for as long as possible."  That was taken from Beth Moore's study on the Fruit of the Spirit.
Remember that self-control is a fruit of the Spirit, we need to pray that the Spirit fill our lives and fill us with this fruit.

Cool Beans Tonight!

We plan on meeting at Cool Beans tonight at 6:30 for coffee and knitting!  I hope to see many of you there!  I know I am excited to get away from the house and talk with you ladies!  See you tonight!
