Just wanted to post a quick request for prayer…
We have a women’s camp coming up this weekend. The 45 women that are volunteer cooks at neighborhood care points and who also sew the Timbali hand bags will be the ones attending. Please pray for all the preparations happening this week and that it will be a relaxing and fruitful weekend.
Our theme is “We love because He first loved us,” and we’ll be talking a lot about God’s great love for us, but then also the love we need to have for each other and those around us. I’ll be teaching some and so will my friend Marcia Borg who is here for a couple months. Pray for the Lord to have control over all we say! Pray that we all come away with a greater sense of the Lord’s love for us and motivation to be a vessel of that love to others. Pray specifically for the relationships among the women–that trust would be built and that they would learn how to better love and serve one another.
I’m sure I’ll have a some good pics and info ready to post early next week.
Thanks for your prayers!
Julie
Jul- will be praying the retreat goes well!
How exciting! I will be praying that your retreat goes very well. You can pray for us too… the same weekend, Gary and I will be leading our first summer camp with junior highers from our church. Our theme is “Quest”, based on Ephesians 6:12, and we will be talking about our role in the great battle between good & evil! I can’t wait to see the pics and hear the stories from your camp! Give Ellie a HUGE hug for me!
God bless,
Katherine =)
Hey Ju,
I’ll be praying and will definitely be there in spirit! Please greet the women for me & tell them that I miss them & send my love!
Hugs to you two, JZ
Plymouth will be praying for you. That includes Marcia’s Plymouth church friends.
In His love,

Hi Julie and Ellie!
It would be great fun to be at your retreat this weekend. I’m sure those ladies will have a wonderful time together and you and Marcia will continue to show God’s love to all of them. We will be holding you all up in prayer. Maybe Ellie could teach them the chicken dance:)
Blessings from home,
Alice
We will be praying for you and Marcia and all the ladies at the retreat this week-end. We hope you all have a wonderful time of fellowship and that God will be glorified in all that is done and said.
