I've said it many times before. One of my favorite parts of being a Pastor's wife is planning ladies activities. We really do have a great time at VSIBC! And our ladies are so wonderful, we have such a great time together!
For the past few years we've done a pancake fellowship. It's so fun! I have ladies sign up to bring pancake toppings and mix-ins. I also have a lady that will bring tons of pancake batter. Then, they grab a cup, fill it with batter and all the mix-ins that they want. Then, they go over to the griddle station, and make their pancake. I love all of the creations!
This year we decided to rent the Civic Center since our ladies group has really grown. I was glad we had all the extra room!
This year we also had a simmer pot station. There were bowls of oranges, dried apples, cinnamon sticks, cloves, ginger, and pumpkin pie spice. The ladies then filled a bag with all the scents that they like. They could then take home their bag of goodies, put in a pot with water, and let it simmer on the stove. It makes your home smell so festive and homey.
This activity actually took place 2 days after my gallbladder attack. I wanted to be there so badly, but knew I couldn't do much. Tabitha was out with sick kiddos. I was so thankful Beth and Brenna were able to lead everything. Beth did the game. We found out who is Mrs. Fall and who needs help with a little more autumn cheer. It was fun!
We always have such a good time together. These are precious, godly ladies that brighten my life. So thankful for all of them!
I also wasn't able to give the devotion that I had planned. So I asked Brenna if she could give a devotion of whatever the Lord laid on her heart. She did amazing! She spoke on Cherishing the Moment. With having baby Asa, and then having a health difficulty, she really spoke from the heart and was able to capture our attention with wise counsel. It was so challenging and helpful.
So thankful for a great group of ladies and the fun times that we have together.
