For His Sake

I am one;
but I am one.

I cannot do everything,
but I can do something.

What I can do,
I ought to do.

What I out to do,
by the Grace of God,
I will do.

Lord, what will you have me do?

Spring Assembly 2009

corner_ul_left.gif corner_ul_right.gif corner_ur_left.gif corner_ur_right.gif

The Spring Assembly was held on April 25th, 2009 at Christ Church, Indiana, PA hosted by Deborah Chapter.

Upon arrival, we were met with a fine spread of muffins, banana bread, and other delightful snacks. Lunch consisted of excellent sandwiches from the town deli and a fine spinach salad.

Our Speaker, Kate Geiger, President of Deborah Chapter, gave a talk on C.S. Lewis and “The Inklings”, an informal study group made up of authors who met to listen to each other's work. She told how these men were 'resonators' for each other which meant they responded with praise and encouragement but also when called for, sincere criticism. This provided to each a honing process which served to help him grow as an author. Kate compared this to how we need to be resonators for each other in our small chapter groups, offering praise and encouragment but also challenging each other to grow spiritually.

The Business segment of this event consisted of the tri-annual Election of Officers for our Diocesan Assembly. The balloting was overseen by Mary Lou Herbst, Membership Chairman. Following is the list of officers-elect who will take office at a September Board Meeting, date to be announced:

President: Gail Simpson; 1st Vice President: Rev. Karen Geary; 2nd Vice President: Judy Herman;
Secretary: Liz Delgado and Treasurer: Brenda Homer

Della, as departing President, was presented with the gift of a framed copy of the DOK motto done in calligraphy by Michael Podesta.

Gail Simpson spoke to the group about the coming DOK Province III Retreat which will be held at Antiochian Village next year - June 4 to June 6, 2010. See the story about next years retreat for more details.

Beth Moore Bible Study For Spring

corner_ul_left.gif corner_ul_right.gif corner_ur_left.gif corner_ur_right.gif

Family Life Movement will present a Women’s Bible study by renowned speaker and author, Beth Moore. “A Heart like His” is an in-depth study of King David, focusing on his years as God’s chosen king of Israel. Beth invites you to join her on an exciting and intimate journey to know King David, the man after God’s own heart. In this study David will make you laugh and cry. He will delight and disappoint you. He will make you want to be just like him at times and nothing like him at others. The study demonstrates how God loved and was able to use David despite his disobedience, and it offers many lessons for those seeking to have a heart like God’s.

The deadline for registration is April 6th, so we know how many to workbooks to order. There is a $25.00 charge for the study and workbook. For further information you may contact Sharon Forrest at 412-761-1100 or Cindy Thomas at 412-257-3029.

Family Life Movement is an initiative of the Episcopal Church Women. It is a ministry for our diocese, organizing and supporting events for the purpose of reaching out to, teaching and equipping women and building families in Christ. We are biblical based women concerned for the spiritual health and Godly transformation of individuals, families and children in the household of Christ.
