The Ladies Ministries of Parker Road Baptist Church are growing everyday. We look forward to many new and exciting events in the immediate weeks ahead:

FIRST CRAFT DAY , February 6 has come and gone. We had 6 ladies in attendance and a great time of fellowship. If you missed it, don't fret - we'll be doing it again soon. It's just a great day to be together and enjoy the relaxed "no schedule" environment. Plan to bring your neighbor and friends next time. Bring whatever project you want to work on...it's YOUR day. (You may even bring your mending if you'd like). The goal is to have great fellowship, good music to listen to, and a morning set aside just for us. Remember to bring your own sack lunch or snacks.

LADIES BIBLE STUDY:

Many times we may ask ourselves the question, "how can I know when God is speaking to me?" As we enter into the weeks ahead, we will use the book by Priscilla Shirer, "When God Speaks to Me", to help discover the answer to this question. The first meeting will be Friday, November 6, beginning with supper at 6:30 PM. Many times when Ladies Bible studies are offered, we assume it means much homework and time we can't squueeze out of our hectic schedules. If this seems to be where you are right now, let us assure you, not so. You may purchase the book by going to Lifeway.com. if you choose to do so, but it's not required. We invite you to come, participate, be spiritually refreshed and biblically fed. Looking forward to seeing you there.

LADIES CONFERENCE : PATCHWORK OF PROMISES
Ladies, mark your calendars for a wonderful day, March 20, 2010 here at Parker Road Family Life Center. Invite friends. Let's get the word out and make this a tremendous day of growing in the Lord. Watch for more details in the next few days. Tickets will go on sale soon. You may purchase one in the lobby or by calling the church office.

LIVING PROOF LIVE WITH BETH MOORE:
Mark your calendar for the Living Proof Live Beth Moore Conference coming up April 16-17, in Tampa, Florida at the Idlewild Baptist Church. The conference registration fee is $60.00

Our WMU (Women’s Missionary Union) is a ladies group that promotes missions both foreign and home. We collect special offerings and dedicate our time and talents to accomplish projects of service and prayer. If you are interested in joining, visit a meeting or call the church office. We meet at 10:30 am for a study and lunch on the second Wednesday of each month. If you cannot make it during the week, we also meet on the second Saturday of each month.

Some of the things we focus on are: Thanksgiving Food Baskets for the needy, Meals and Encouragement at the Hope Lodge and the Ronald McDonald House. We collect Christmas items for Samaritan’s Purse Shoe Box drive, as well as special events for the Annie Armstrong Easter offering and the Lottie Moon Christmas offering. Please come and join us as we minister to the world!

We were privileged to serve a meal to the Hope Lodge residents in February & we always receive the blessing. We will continue with this important outreach through the month of October & if you would like to join us, please do so. Our support of Harmony Pregnancy & Resource Center with “baby boomerang bottles” was an overwhelming success. We donated $644.13 and we thank you for your support. We are also in need of canned goods for our food pantry in order to assist our community. Donations can be left in church foyer. We invite and encourage ladies of Parker Road to join us at our monthly meetings the 2nd Wednesday of each month.
