I wonder if that's one of the problems she was facing?<BR/><BR/>Can you talk to her about hosting and/or leading a small group for women in your home at a time that's convenient for you?GiBeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03717697386035335817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21789110.post-58251631600882329092007-08-15T09:12:00.000-05:002007-08-15T09:12:00.000-05:00That's a serious bummer.

Why not just ask all these enthused & desperate-for-women-fellowship ladies to give a hand in the organizing. I'm sure she'd get some volunteers in a heart beat. If that many women showed up, me thinks they are craving it. I know I would be too! I hope that gets sorted. <BR/><BR/>Its been almost 6 months since I've 'committed' to this church but yes, there are still some Sundays where I think 'is this the one?' so you're not alone in those thoughts. God is there!

When you commit, it's not really to them that you're making the promise. It's to God, knowing that he can work through any situation that is either encouraging or discouraging depending on your point of view.<BR/><BR/>If anything, it may be that satan has been working with your searching, knowing if he can keep you from committing to any church, he might be able to keep you from trusting in God. Keep the faith and know that wherever you choose to worship with a congregation, HE will be there with you.Shaleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02364055849106684154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21789110.post-87375693993290743002007-08-14T18:00:00.000-05:002007-08-14T18:00:00.000-05:00Well, I have to say that's the first time I've hea...Well, I have to say that's the first time I've heard of something being cancelled because of TOO MUCH participation.

B...Yes, you have the right idea... trust God in it. But how disappointing! I SO resonate with your church struggles. Even after we "committed" to a church, it has been hard to remain committed amidst changes and the fact that everything isn't "perfect." But hang in there... I love reading about your journey!Rachellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13987272970550279776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21789110.post-46317084480494631642007-08-13T06:59:00.000-05:002007-08-13T06:59:00.000-05:00I have been wanting to mentiuon this for a while -...I have been wanting to mentiuon this for a while - but look up the NCMI (New Covenant Ministries International) team on the internet. They have relating churches all over the world, perhaps there is a church near you that you could visit... just a thought.<BR/><BR/>I love your stained glass works and I am so happy you are back.
