Hazelton SDA Women's Ministry ~ August
2016
Dear
Ladies
Campmeetings
are exciting, even if you were there for a day, celebrating the
meeting of family and friends, listening to an inspired sermon, and
just being in the presence of a holy atmosphere can fill you with a
sense of awe or loneliness. What kind of feeling are you having?
Charles Stanley grew up only knowing
his mom. his father left when he was nine months old, he just walked
out on his life. . His mother had to work and so frequently he came
home to an empty house knowing he would be alone. He struggled all
his life with this sense of being alone. His mother told him to
visit the church next door and so he went. Having the same feelings
he discovered a God who promised to be with him wherever he was.
Clinging to the word in the Bible that God was his Father. he hung
on to those words for the rest of his life thru school, into
marriage, ministry and in between friendships.
Watch this video if you can to go over
the points listed here:

or be a friend that you can:

small to recognize that person, smile, a warm casserole!!,

to remember this month is:
Anchor
your soul to a scripture:
HUGS
People are leaving our church for every
reason you can think of, we are so small, promises of a better
economy have faded into a background somewhere so people have moved, SO, Ladies of Race!!!
(because people come from many different countries!!) I write this to you because each one of you are important to the
other, the words of his sermon above I felt would encourage you to
reach out and not give up!
