Another awesome talk from Pastor Rich! He talked to us about "How to have a quiet time with God" He gave us 5 reasons why a quiet time should be a priority in our schedule, the purpose of a daily quiet time, and resources to begin a daily quiet time with God.
I want to tell you about how to follow a simple plan to have a quiet time with God:
Schedule a 15 minute plan:
1 Minute to Relax-take deep breathes and prepare yourself to listen to what God will be telling you
4 Minutes Reading scripture:a few verses over and over or a longer passage
4 Minutes Reflecting...Personalize the scripture, put YOUR name right in the passage
2 Minutes Pondering and Recording in a journal
4 Minutes Praying
Make a quiet time with God a Priority...you'll never regret it.
We also discussed some Women's outings coming up:
Ladies Day at Gull Lake June 17-20. Check your calendar and bring a date that works for you next week...we'll try to get a carpool together to go.
Hearts at Home in Grand Rapids Oct 3-4...More info to come
Immanuel Women's Retreat Nov 7-8(?) More details to come
We also discussed some mission projects for Lansing Christian Services:
Collecting Board books by authors Suess, Carle, Bill Martin, Sam McBratney, Donald Crew.
Collecting new items for Layettes:Undershirt, Sleeper, Socks, optional outfit, book, wrapped in a receiving blanket.
Sock and Underwear collections
If you could bring these the last 2 weeks of Club Mom, and throughout the summer, we will bring this to Lansing Christian Services.
Make sure you mark your calendar for our end of the year party on April 30. We will be making neckwarmers, having some fingerfood (bring a plate to pass) and enjoying each other's company.
Next week, we'll finish our bible study book with the lesson "Friends with God"
