Favor Coffee Breaks

I'm so excited to tell you about our Favor Coffee Breaks that will begin in June.  We realize that in a church our size, even with bible study classes and life groups, we don't always get the opportunity to know one another like we would like to.  We also know that with the way we have grown, many of our women haven't gotten to connect especially since we are so often segregated into specific age groups.  And now we have two campuses and we want women from both campuses to get to know one another.  Our mission from the start was to provide opportunities for girls of all ages to connect.  We believe this is so important as we can learn so much from one another and mentor and grow together. A healthy church is a growing, loving, multi-generational church.  Believing this, we are offering "coffee breaks" on the 3rd Saturday of the month at 10am for only an hour.  Also believing that meeting in homes is a wonderful way to relax and break down barriers, we will be doing our coffee breaks in different homes each time.  We have a different host in place for June through October and will take a break from the coffee breaks, ;), in November and December for the holidays.  This will be a time with nothing planned other than to enjoy one another and offer encouragement and prayer support for one another.  It is open to anyone and everyone!  Please feel free to bring friends.  This will be great for outreach and inreach.  Yes, coffee will be served along with a light snack, perhaps even coffee cake.  We will be handing out invitations at church very soon and posting everywhere we can think of.  Help us get the word out!! We will post the home we are meeting in so noone will be left out.  Hopefully these will grow so much that we will have to have several host homes each 3rd Saturday and spread the love around.  Our Favor Team is hosting to begin with, but if you would be interested in hosting or perhaps providing the breakfast snack, please let us know.  We will plan more of these come the new year and we would love your participation. Again, help us spread the word.  Our first Favor Coffee Break will be June 20th at the home of JoHannah Joines.  We will have her address posted and like I said, we will have invitations printed to hand out at church with all the details of the months to come.
Have a Favor-filled day and week to come and remember, God's favor is never about us, it's always about Him!!
May God be gracious to us and bless us; look on us with favor so that your way may be known on earth, your salvation among all nations.  Psalm 6:1-2
