Lunch and the Afternoon Session

Bev closed the morning session, explained the lunch procedure, and prayed for the meal.

The cooks and assistants were busy in the kitchen – setting out food for the 225 ladies in attendance.

Pulled pork sandwiches with slaw.

Salad

Macaroni salad

Pies for dessert

The afternoon session began with congregational singing – led by Linnea.

Jess welcomed us back to the sanctuary and invited Dorcas to the podium.

From my notes: Take 100% of the responsibility for your part of your problems.

In this session Dorcas suggested a series of ways we can encourage our husband or those in our world.

Accept – Appreciate – Admire

The wise woman builds her house, but with her own hands the foolish one tears hers down. Proverbs 14:1 New International Version

We are used to seeing the above version. However, the following one grabbed my attention.

A woman’s family is held together by her wisdom, but it can be destroyed by her foolishness. Proverbs 14:1 Contemporary English Version.

Dorinda gave the closing remarks.

It was a challenging and encouraging day.
