Thank you all so much for your support of FFD Wives For Christ. I am encouraged by the response and am looking forward to where God is going to take us. For those of you who couldn't make it to the meeting, below is a follow up on what was discussed and also the prayer requests that were given...
The purpose for creating FFD Wives For Christ is for us to connect, grow, support and serve one another. We want to build friendships, enjoy fellowship, grow in the Lord, support each other in need, pray for each other and serve together.
We will be meeting on a monthly basis. At each monthly meeting there will be:
1.) a devotional
2.) a testimony
3.) prayer requests
4.) discuss the current needs (ie: meals to be delivered, etc.)
5.) make plans (next meeting, play dates, coffee dates, etc.)
Currently we have a play date scheduled for Friday, November 12th at 3:00 at Sierra Woods' home. Please email or call if you need her address/ directions. Also, please keep me posted on who can make it so we can have an idea of a headcount.
Next monthly meeting will be held December 2nd, 7:00 at the conference room at Station 17. Please let me know who is able to attend. Drinks will be provided. Feel free to bring a dessert/ snack.
Also, we didn't talk about this at the meeting, however, occasional coffee dates will be set for us to get together for just some girl time. Meeting at Starbucks to just chat and hang out, for whoever can make it and for however long. I will let you know when the first one is scheduled.
Flyers will be going out to all the stations to inform them of the FFD WFC and the meal ministry. We are hoping to get the word out and be well-informed when there is a need within the department. Whether that be during a sickness, a tragedy, a new baby, etc. I will be talking with Bonnie at headquarters tomorrow to discuss how she can help with that.
Prayer Requests:
If you haven't received these via email, please let me know and I can get them to you.
We may possibly be helping out Angela Fernandez in planning the annual Union Christmas Party. So keep in mind ways that you could possibly help out with that. Whether it be decorating, setting up, clean-up, helping out with the kids area, etc. We will keep you updated on this when we find out more info.
I look forward to our next meeting. Please feel free to email or call me if any other prayer requests come up. I believe if you can click "subscribe" on this blog then you will be notified as soon as a post is made and you can keep updated.
Thank you to all who came and I really look forward to meeting with those who couldn't make it.
To God Be The Glory,
