Last night (Wednesday December 8th) the women of Plummerville UMC celebrated Christmas with a small party at our home. We had delicious chicken spaghetti, salad, bread, chocolate triffle, apple caramel cake, and hot cider. The picture is above is most of the 11 women in attendance.
We also celebrated by beginning our study of Strong Was Her Faith: Women of the New Testament. The book begins with the story of Elizabeth the mother of John. It was very appropriate for our Christmas celebration!
Luke 1:41-44
41When Elizabeth heard Mary’s greeting, the child leaped in her womb. And Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit 42and exclaimed with a loud cry, “Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb. 43And why has this happened to me, that the mother of my Lord comes to me? 44For as soon as I heard the sound of your greeting, the child in my womb leaped for joy.
We then had an ornament exchange as a celebration! Here are our cute packages all together.
Thank you to the women of our church for being such an encouragement to me. Your friendship has enriched my life and your commitment to this group is evident. I love that we only began 6 months ago, yet we have grown together and continue to strengthen our friendships.
Merry Christmas.
