Hello Ladies -
Here’s a quick update of
all that is happening (and NOT happening right now!) with Presbytery Women’s
Ministry in the Mississippi Valley, due to the Coronavirus and current
situation in our country.
We are still “on hold”
since the decision was made in early March to postpone the Coffee &
Connection that month at Wynndale, and now we have also postponed the C&C
that was set for July at Lakeland. Both
churches would like to host a C&C sometime in the future, when things are
up and running again.
Many of the MS Valley
churches are just now beginning to gather for worship, and trying to keep
everyone distanced. All the churches
that I know of are not yet meeting for Sunday school classes or any groups of
more than 10 people, so it’s not feasible to try to host large groups yet for a
Coffee & Connection, or try to “talk around the table” while maintaining
our distance. Many women would not be
willing to attend at this point, either.
We have not been meeting
for Lunch Bunch, since restaurants were closed, and things are still sketchy
with travel and any type of social settings as things begin to open again. So we have continued to wait (and pray!) and
we have not had any Presbytery-wide women’s meetings offered since March, 2020.
For future updates, please
check back on this blogsite and the Facebook pages listed below. We
will let you know when upcoming events are back on the schedule! Also, please check the Facebook group for
prayer requests and FEEL FREE TO POST prayer requests, questions, comments and
encouraging words there, too! These groups
were created for women to connect with each other!
The national team has
posts on their website (pcacdm.org) and registration information for the
regional “Hinged” conferences, starting with the one in Birmingham to be held
September 18-19.
Please continue to pray for the pastors, leaders and churches of our
Presbytery, and for the PCA, and all of our brothers and sisters in Christ,
here and around the world! This is such
an unusual time in the life of our country and the whole world. But thankfully, we can trust that our loving
and powerful God is in control!
“Because of the LORD’s
great love we are not consumed, for His compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness.” Lamentations 3:22-23 NIV
Looking to Him, and with
much love and prayers for you all,
