Women of Memorial
Fellowship & Service
Join us! All women are welcome to participate and volunteer under the
name "Women of Memorial." Organizational meetings-fitted with fellowship,
laughter, devotion and prayer-usually occur on the third Monday of the
month.
Check the weekly calendar for an up-to-date schedule. If you cannot
make the meetings, there are plenty of other ways to be involved in the
fellowship and service activities of the Women of Memorial. Check it out..

"An evening with..."
On occasion, the Women of Memorial
will host a speaker for everyone to
come and enjoy. The presenters
witness about the peculiarities and
blessings of living a Christian life-from
parenting to competitive sports,
academia to professionalism and
corporate America. Keep your eye on
the Messenger Newsletter or weekly
announcements section for details.
Every second and fourth Thursday of
the month, women of varying levels of
experience and skill meet to sew quilts
which are given to international
families in the cold months. We meet
downstairs in the North Gold Room
Join Sally Hartman and Norma Buss.

Most of the organization and
brainstorming happens at
monthly meetings. We also
enjoy Christian fellowship and
laughter, devotion and prayer.
It is a great opportunity to
pause and relate to each other
about Christian life as women.
Join us if you are able!

                      We know that God          
                       is an
ever-present
                     help in trouble
.                 
                     The prayer shawls            
                     stitched together               
                     by the hands of the
women who participate in the prayer
shawl ministry serve as the arms of
God to embrace those who have felt
the earth give way and mountains fall.
The shawls help those who need
comfort to
be still and know that I am
God.

The women of the Prayer Shawl
Ministry meet the fourth Monday of the
month at 7 PM. Yarn, needles,
patterns, and help are provided.

Psalm 46
God is our refuge and strength, an
ever-present help in trouble
. Therefore we
will not fear, though the earth give way and the
mountains fall into the heart of the sea,though its
waters roar and foam and the mountains quake
with their surging.

There is a river whose streams make glad the
city of God, the holy place where the Most High
dwells.
God is within her, she will not fall;
God will help her at the break of day.
Nations are
in uproar, kingdoms fall; He lifts His voice, the
earth melts.
The LORD Almighty is with us; the
God of Jacob is our fortress.

Come and see the works of the LORD, the
desolations He has brought on the earth. He
makes wars cease to the ends of the earth;
He breaks the bow and shatters the spear,
He burns the shields with fire.

"Be still, and know that I am God; I will be
exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the
earth."
The LORD Almighty is with us; the God
of Jacob is our fortress.
