50's Night at The Malt Shoppe & Dessert Auction April 25, 2008

Women's Connection had a great 50's Night at The Malt Shoppe and Dessert Auction in the Fellowship Hall. We went "back to the nifty fifties" and while we were there, we enjoyed some great desserts and watched alot of delicious home baked desserts auctioned off by a "mystery auctioneer". All proceeds went to help Women's Connection for Pennies Plus!!

The heart of Women's Connection is to provide a place where women can meet together with God and find joy, encouragement, friendship and grow in our relationship with Christ. It doesn't matter whether you are married , a young mom, single, empty nester, young or young at heart....you are invited to come.

Hi-lights of the Retreat...
Our first retreat "A Forgiving Heart" was a great success. About 30 ladies joined together at Braeside Camp on Friday, February 23 & Saturday, February 24. What an awesome time we had with God and each other! Karen Duhamel Ridge was our speaker and spoke on forgiveness. She challenged our hearts as she told us of how her heart was broken but how God sustained her and her children and brought them through the most difficult times of her life. She also learned how to forgive and challenged us with some practical ways to learn to forgive.
Stephanie Israelson lead us in worship with her beautiful voice and we were blessed with God's presence.

Of course the fellowship was amazing .......we laughed and talked and talked and laughed ....until the wee hours of the morning.

a Have you had a "Missionary Moment"?

Women's Connection within our local church can initiate and enhance missionary care. We can build greater connection with our missionaries and care for their needs by responding in practical and relevant ways. We can communicate through correspondence and e-mails. Remember them on their birthdays and other special holidays throughout the year. Just sending an "I"m thinking of you" card or a little note to let the missionary know that you are praying for them can be very encouraging to them. Inquire about their needs, ask what you can pray for and DO IT!

There are currently 2 women from Hi-Way Pentecostal Church who are working in the mission field.

Dorothy Klynstra, daughter of Mint and Dina Klynstra is serving in Thailand, working in a home for orphaned and physically handicapped boys. She is an occupational therapist and her goal is to improve the quality of life for these boys and where possible teach them life skills that will allow them more independence.

Kathy McDonald, sister of Jerry and Janice McDonald, works with YWAM (Youth With A Mission) in the Central American country of Belize. She works with children and youth in this country to bring the message of the Gospel to them and over the years has adopted several children. One of her daughters has chosen to follow in Kathy's footsteps and is currently attending Bible College so that she too can reach out to the lost of the world as Kathy has done. Both of these ladies covet our prayers for them and below you will find their postal addresses as well as their e-mail addresses. Please write to them and encourage them by letting them know that we are interested in their work.
