Frazzled Female

Some of us girls have started the Frazzled Female bible study on Sunday nights. It's very different from Beth Moore (i.e. not as much homework), but I'm finding that it's hitting very close to home. The first passage was about Mary and Martha, and let me just say - I AM MARTHA! Especially when it comes time to have company over or go somewhere.  But I think the point of the lesson is that we should be more like Mary. Just relax and sit at the feet of Jesus.

So who have you been this week? Mary or Martha?

Activities Abound!

Hey ya'll - hope you're enjoying this post-Holiday season weather we've been having. Nothing like some snow to start off a full work week. There are a few things to tell you, and I know you will be excited about them.

First of all, Sunday School has a new name. It's now called LifeGroups, and you can read all about it here: http://www.fbccabot.org/lifegroups.  There are weekly devotions that go along with Sunday's lesson, and you can print out a copy for next week (January 10). http://www.fbccabot.org/assets/1222/first_look_jan_10.pdf. I know I often struggle with what to read in the bible without a guide, so this will be a great help for me. I will try and post the next week's on the following Monday.

Next Sunday (January 10th) we will be having a diaper shower for Jeremy, Kelley, and Ryan Hefner. Baby Ryan made a surprise appearance on New Year's Eve, so we will all get a chance to ooo and ahhh over him. Bring something good to eat and some diapers/wipes.

There is also a calendar for meals for the Hefners. We are going to start next Monday and do something every other day. I believe there are two days available - January 25 and January 31st. Click here to sign-up: http://www.carecalendar.org/logon/29298 (the code is 6590).

We will also start back our Ladies Bible Study on the 10th at 5 p.m., so it will be a full day! (I believe the Men have started back their study as well). Come prepared to share how the holidays were and what you'd like to discuss in 2010.

If I've left off anything, please leave a comment! I am so blessed to be in your circle of friends!
