Disco Divas & FREEDOM!


LG's!
Trunk R' Treat...what a night! (click image to enlarge) Thanks to all of you who made it out and brought your little ones to par-te' together and represent Parkway. We had a great turnout (over 5,000 people) so THANK YOU - THANK YOU - THANK YOU! Hopefully it opened up the door to welcome new folks to our church and more importantly, to meet Jesus!
Special shout out to Amy for visiting us at our last LG meeting and a PRAISE for JoAnne's successful surgery!

So our new topic of discussion 'miraculously' aligns with Parkway's message right now (God is cool that way ; ) ...FREEDOM! We are talking about freedom from all that keeps us down, keeps us in the cycle of sin, keeps us circling that same ole mountain again and again - oppression, depression, regression. Bottom line; God is the answer. And the answers can be found in His Word. Jesus said, "You will know the truth, and the truth will set you free." John 8:31-32

We went on to discuss excerpts from Sheila Walsh' book, 'Beautiful Things Happen When a Woman Trusts God'. 'There are many different reasons we feel a sense of shame, but how we then behave seems very much the same. If we believe there is something deep inside of us that others would reject, we hold ourselves back or simply vote ourselves out of life. This can lead to depression, addictions, bitterness and despair. This is not the life Christ died to give you! We become used to living as we have lived for so long that it can be hard at times to vocalize what we feel.'

So if you have yet to join us for this great new study, check out our upcoming dates:

  • Nov 12 LG Meeting 7pm at Parkway and Warm Clothes Collection
  • Nov 26 Post-Thanksgiving DESSERT n' DANCE Party!
  • Dec 10 LG Christmas Party n' Gift Exchange
  • Volunteer Opportunity - TBD
And that's all I got ladies. PLEASE don't forget to contact your Fridge Note Friend, meet up over coffee or lunch, pray for them - let's keep each other accountable! And don't forget...I'm here for you too. You know how to reach me.

Until our next meeting - - be blessed, but more importantly...BE A BLESSING!

Love much and much love,
Dee.
