Weaving . . .

The Lord continues to weave all the details together.  What the end result will look like?  We're still waiting, but however the print comes out, it will be PERFECT!  Perfect, because He's in it and creating this opportunity.

SHINE is already meeting, just not in an official place.  We meet once-a-month in our home.  The first month we had 10 in attendance, all junior high girls.  And this past month, we had 15, which included high school girls as well. 

In March, we had the theme "your mamma's pajamas", and in April, we had "silly sock" theme.  We're going through the book, "A Young Woman After God's Own Heart."

Chapter 1 was about being "hot-hearted for Christ," and learning to be all in!!  We sifted through the difficult truth that Chris would rather us be all on for Him, or all off, but not in between.

Chapter 2 we talked about being "deeply rooted," so we can weather the storms of life, and be standing when trials hit us hard.  This is a way we can SHINE for Him!!

Our first service project is having a bedding drive for an orphanage across the border, opening in July for teen girls.  We will have various opportunities to reach out to these girls, from Silver to Palomas.
