Ladies Fellowship
Hayley Cheng
We kicked off the year with a dinner in Eastwood with 14 ladies – it was a good time of catching up and meeting new ladies.
We held an outreach social in May, making keyrings and the turn out was great – with many inviting daughters and mothers to the event.
In July we attended the annual EQUIP conference, this year focusing on the book of Haggai, where we were reminded of the kingdom of God which is here now on earth and challenged to think about whether or not we are building up God’s kingdom or busy building up our own temples (homes/earthly lives). What we do for God’s kingdom here now on earth is not in vain, as we are partnering with the God who is Lord of both heaven and earth, to build his (future) kingdom.
I am excited for our upcoming meet in September as we will have a guest speaker from AFES to come run a workshop and challenge our ladies.
As we continue to meet every second month, my prayer is for growth. As ladies who enjoy a good chat over some good food, I pray that our relationships grow with one another so that we may continue to be a safe place for sharing life and supporting one another as sisters in Christ. I pray that we individually experience growth in our relationship with God and ultimately grow in our characters as Godly women. I pray for growth in myself and the committee, that God may raise up volunteers or further support for the fellowship so that we may continue meeting in a way that encourages and edifies and not lose sight of the hope we live for.
