On September 8, ‘Gather and Connect’, was held at North Brisbane Church of Christ and women from Camp Hill, Living Hope Caboolture, Sanctuary Park and North Brisbane attended and it was a very relaxed and encouraging time together. It was great to see Hazel Morris there from the AICF and she told us a couple of interesting stories. After a time of worship and morning tea, the women joined together around tables and discussions were held on various questions regarding women in the church and community, at local church level and conference level. The answers were then written up on poster sheets and when all were completed, a member of a table went to the front and told the others what their table had come up with. It was most informative and very interesting. I am sure Andi will do a report on all the answers at some time for the conXion for other women to read. At the end of the day we all came together for a time of worship and communion, thanking God for what He has done in sending us His Son, Jesus Christ to give His life for us then sending the Holy Spirit to take His place in guiding and helping us to make right decisions as women and mothers in the church and community.
I would just like to encourage more women to attend meetings such as these as they really help with ideas of what others are doing in their church and also I encourage each one to come along to the women’s camps where once again it is a time of encouragement and fellowship with other women and to also receive great spiritual food as well as delicious meals. The next camp is late October at Coolum Beach, DON’T MISS IT!!!
