This past Thursday night, May 24th, Alison,
Katie, Mary & I went to Sarah Prince’s women’s group at Ocean View
Methodist. This was a fun night of games and learning more about how to value
yourself as a woman of God. The women in the group have been following a study
from Hillsong Church called Shine. Each week, they have a new topic and are
introduced to new ways of shining their light for Christ and knowing their
worth. There were about 20 women there total and it was awesome to me to see
how many women showed up! We started the night with each woman holding half of
a sliced fruit. The message was basically, ‘We have seeds of greatness and we
should grow these into big dreams and ideas for the future.’ The fruit was used
to show that even though the seeds and pits on the insides are not so pretty,
if you water it and treat it well, the seed grows into a beautiful fruit.
Erika, a woman from Hillsong Church, came to help out with this message and did
a great job. After the message, Chevonne led the women in an activity to teach
them how to stand up straight and hold their heads high. All the women made two
lines with some space in the middle for a “catwalk”. Each woman practiced walking
down the middle holding their heads high and chins up in confidence while the
others cheered them on and clapped. This activity was a great confidence
booster and was a lot of fun for the women. After the activity, the women got
in groups of 3-5 to talk and pray together. Women’s group was a great night of
fun and fellowship. The main focus of teaching the women how to value
themselves and be confident in everything was a great topic for the night.
Love & God bless,
Amanda Maddox
