Welcome Fall !

I usually hate to see summer end even though I love fall. This year I am anxious for this transitional season to end and full fall to arrive. We have had way too much rain for the summer usual and if it is not beach weather then I prefer fall weather to hot , muggy and rainy. I am looking forward to pumpkin treats, fall porches , honeycrisp apples, sweatery days, fires in the fireplace and the smell of crisp autumn air and fall candles.
I hope you and your family will get out into the fall of it all and do a corn maze, a bonfire, a fall walk, some hot chocolate and all that fall means.. oysters, cookouts, football and family gatherings. Our retreat will be right in the middle of fall so I am hoping for those Carolina blue skies and crisp autumn air for our weekend at Isle of Palms.
Last night we had our regular gathering of Joy ladies and as always, the fellowship and food were unmatched. We meet on the fourth sunday of every month and would love you to come and bring a friend.

Retreat Update

Our upcoming retreat is forming up to be a huge weekend.. 45 ladies are signed up to gather in love and joy to grow in Jesus and in relationship with one another. I hope your name is on the list but if not, we can still add a few. October 10 is the deadline for paying your full balance of 160.00. Many of you have made deposits and some of you have not so please contact me so I can move forward with plans for rooming and treats.

About the children...

Hopefully , all of you with children know that we all love children and have no ill intent when we say , no kids at this event. The women's ministry has a goal of allowing the ladies of the church to come together for a time of fellowship and it is a time when all moms need to spend that time with other women and not have the cares of their children for those few hours each month. If your child is 5yrs or older they may enjoy the youth groups that meet during the same time as JOY... Those 5- 6th grade can attend.."Kids for Christ" and those 6th - 12th grade can join our youth group. If your child is younger than 5 ...book a sitter, engage a dad or call me if it is a problem and we will see about a sitter when possible. For those who do not have children and those who do, leaving the children to play elsewhere makes for a real opportunity for everyone to pray together, socialize and get to know each other. Thank you for understanding.
