SEPTEMBER - OCTOBER SOCIALS

September 5, 2010

Looking for Help in All the Right Places

Have you ever read something in a magazine or newspaper that you were just dieing to share with someone.  Some cooking tips or ideas for better organizing paperwork?  Gardening help or recipes?  News about how someone in the area who accomplished something or movie/book reviews?  For this month's gathering, please keep an eye open for just such a thing.  Clip it and bring it to share.  Expect some lively discussion and good ideas to take home.

All Wigged Out

Come and learn about hair care products and current styles.  A hair stylist will be on hand to get us up to date on those and other issues as well as answer some questions.

AUGUST 1, 2010 - BAGGAGE TO GO

Our next social is approaching, and I don't want you to miss it!  At some point we all have to pack luggage.  Whether it's for a vacation or a visit to family or friends, packing for a journey is a skill I still strive to master.  Try as I might, when I reach my destination, my clothes have bunched up in one corner or another of the luggage.  Well, I have learned a trick or two to share with you, but we can all learn from each other.  To that end, please come with any packing tip you might have.

Oh, in case travel causes you anxiety on other levels as well (airline rules, best destinations, how to get the best deals, how to pick reputable tour guides, good hotels, etc.), a professional travel agent will be here to give us some answers to those issues and more - for FREE!

I'm looking forward to it because I get to spend time with you as we laugh and learn together.

June 6, 2010 Ice Cream Social

God is so good!  Although many of those invited had told me they had family things going on and then heavy rains could have stopped many others, we had a good turn out for the ice cream social.  Our start time was changed to 6:45pm and we fellowshipped until about 7:30.  Our devotional was from Psalm 119:103 in which the psalmist says, "How sweet are your words to my taste, sweeter than honey to my mouth!"  Sweet ladies. Sweet words from God.  Sweet treat to consume.  Every lady brought a topping for the ice cream and we made some tasty sundies!  Then we learned how to make Creamsicle greeting cards.  It was a very good night thanks to my sweet friends old and new.

 

    

It's Sweet Sunday - Really Sweet!

June 6, 2010

6:45-8:15 PM

We're having an ice cream social and some sweet fellowship.  A variety of tempting ice cream flavors will be turned into scrumptious personalized sundaes.  Bring one of your favorite toppings and a friend or two.  After we "chill" out, there will be a short devotion.  Then we're going to make an ice cream treat of a very different kind.  Come, taste, see!!!

Notice the time change.

We are experimenting with an earlier time so you can get home in time for plenty of rest.

Baggage Must Go

May 2, 2010 Tea

Sweet friends gathered at my house to fellowship and enjoy a tea party.  Conversation was lively and we enjoyed sharing ideas about the difficulties of personal communication and gatherings in our culture.  The gathering was small, and we enjoyed the closeness it generated.  Thanks to all who dropped by.
