You Might Have Noticed...

You might have noticed that our blog is long overdue for a post. But don't think the ladies of PWOC have spent the past two months idling away their time. On the contrary, Check out what we've been up to:

  • Mothering Without Guilt led by Blanca has been meeting on Tuesdays at the Solid Rock Cafe. We've enjoying meeting many new ladies and their young children. How wonderful it is to reach out and share fellowship and prayer with each one! This study will end in April 28, and we hope to offer another short study this summer.
  • Many of our number have been enduring struggles over the past two month. But we rejoice that in the midst of medical issues, family changes, financial struggles and personal stress, we are victorious every time we go to God for our needs. Our study, Having a Mary Heart in a Martha World, causes us to reflect on our priority of prayer. Many ladies have stepped up to led the discussions.
  • Our leadership selection committee has been diligently praying for God's will for Sheppard PWOC this coming year. As we approach this PCS season, we realize that our fellowship changes. I hope that you are able to look back a this year and cherish memories with your sisters in Christ. And then look forward with confidence that God will bless you in the upcoming months as He draws together a special group of women to share your journey.
  • God has strengthened each of us to be the body of Christ as we serve one another. We've delivered meals, watched each others children, prayed in times of strife, visited in the hospital, and passionately stood in the gap in each others absences. What beautiful Martha moments we've blessed each other with!
We have some great events coming up soon! Watch you email for details about the evening program May 7th and our WILD traveling training on May 16th.
