Rosevale Women’s Fellowship
50TH Anniversary Luncheon

The Rosevale Women's Fellowship celebrated their 50th anniversary on 5th June, 2012.

It was wonderful to see the Chapel filled with many ladies, and a few men, both from the local area, Brisbane, Nambour, Toowoomba and many other places as well as New South Wales.  It was a day filled with many blessings.

Marilyn Wainwright shared the history of the Ladies Fellowship.

Other speakers were Shirley Mansell  who spoke about the life of the woman who touched the hem of Jesus' garment and was healed, the theme for the day being " Women of the Bible".  Evelyn Colbran reflected on the lives of Mary and Martha.

Barbara Shipton (nee Christensen) was able to come home, and share with those gathered, some stories and minister in song with daughter Holly.

Over one hundred meals were served consisting of a hot roast dinner and desert. Three original members of the Ladies' Fellowship were given the privilege of cutting the birthday cake - Sheila Leitch, Lori Schulz and Serophene Christensen.

Our 50th Anniversary Recipes and Memorabilia Book was on sale for $10.  The ever popular after lunch stall was again a feature of the celebrations with cakes,slices, biscuits, fruit and veg., jams, pickles and plants on sale.

We thank God for the many ladies who worked so hard to make the day an experience to be remembered by those who attended.
