The benefits of serving others.

This past Sunday was our end of Summer picnic fundraiser for Woven.  As I was manning the oven, making scalloped potatoes for 300 people, my mind started wandering. 

Mostly, it wandered to the area of  "How in the world did I agree to do this?". 

And then looking around me, I remembered.....

 

I do this to spend time with a great group of ladies.

 

I do this because in serving my church or community, I'm serving the Lord.

 

 

I do this because how else would I have gotten to know Rhonda...

 

or Jennifer in the pretty orange shirt, who kept hiding from my camera!

 

 

I do this to help a good cause - serving the women of our community.

 

 

And let's face it.....it's fun!

 

 

If you feel disconnected - like you don't have a place to belong - can I give you some advice?  Join in.  Serve.  Help out. 

 

Whatever you want to call it, just do it. 

 

Woven has a couple of events coming up in October with the Harvest Festival and of course, Chocolate & Chuckles.  You can bake a dessert, help decorate, sell tickets....heck, I'll even let you help me clean and decorate the bathrooms if you want! 

 

 Please, don't say "Well, no one has asked me.".  Guess what?  I'm asking you.  Right here, right now.  Want to get involved?  Leave me a comment, give me a call, call the church and talk to Tammy, leave a message on Facebook - there are lots of ways to connect. 

 



Hope to hear from you soon!
