New Year, New Goals

We all look forward to a new year, and an opportunity to better ourselves. I'm not a big resolutions person, but I always try to take a look at my life and see if it truly reflects how God would want me to be. Though one resolution is to take better care of this blog. If you come across anything you want to add, please email me at MBL6613@gmail.com , I would LOVE some material to put on here.

I hope each one of you is able to slow down, make time for your beloveds, and especially make time to grow and deepen your relationship with our Father. It amazes me every day, that He wants to hear from me!

We have been talking about generosity in ABF with Brett and Tyler leading the way. God has been so generous with me. His patience, His protection, His compassion, His pursuit of me. I am definitely thankful for the last one!


A few upcoming events:

January 29th: Women's Birthday Celebration @ 10AM. Tickets are $8 each.

February 12th: Valentine's Day party @ The Leidner's. We will be bringing different toiletries to pack up for the SEALs mission team.

March 18th: This is the neighborhood party that Pastor John was talking about to wrap up Mission South Irving. Anyone want to volunteer their house and neighbors???


Care Groups:

Since our class is becoming so big, Care Group Leaders, please make sure you are scheduling events with your groups.

Baby/Wedding Showers:

This will be left up to each individual care group. The ABF will still schedule meals for after babies are born.


Equipping U starts Sunday Jan 23. You can find out more information HERE .
