Happy Fall Ya'll

Although West Texas temperatures tend to fluctuate between Summer and Winter, I am getting glimpses of Fall and loving every minute!

Thanks to those that attended the training last month. It was great to meet you face to face! I pray that you were encouraged in your leadership and that the ideas shared were helpful for your group. Remember God has chosen each of you "for such a time as this."

Mark your calendars and watch your email for an conference call coming in January. Since we live so far apart, we can easily communicate and encourage each other via conference calls. All Coordinators and Assistant Coordinators are invited to participate. If you have specific questions you would like addressed, feel free to email them to me in advance and I will put them on the agenda.

I continue to pray for each group in our area, and especially as we near the Holiday season that you are finding ways to present the Gospel clearly to the moms in your group. Christmas is such a natural time to do this. You may choose to do a drama, devotional, service project, or many other things that can point moms to the Savior. Just reflecting on Mary's experience of giving birth to the Christ is enough to draw any woman nearer to the heart of God. I look forward to hearing how God is moving in your groups!

Blessings,
Amy
