Tired

Last night after the presentation seven of us gathered in the next room to talk. The group began as any group does, with introductions and names. Very quickly each woman began to share from her heart. The particulars are private, but I see once again how much women pour themselves out on behalf of others and then become tired at a very deep level.

  1. Hi Carla! Remember me? (from Pastor’s Wives’ Meeting in Irving) – I am excited to be leading out our new Women’s Group at my church this Friday with the Journey of Joy study:) We are a church plant with a really strong missional focus – we have a core group of 8 women or so and are expecting 6 visitors for sure and possibly 2-3 additional women. I am excited to introduce them to you via your DVDs. Have a blessed week!

    • Leigh,

      I am in London right now sitting in the sun and reading your email. I am so glad to hear that you are using the Journey of Joy Bible study series! Please let me know how the ladies like it.

      Carla
