Help! I'm in Women's Ministry
I was recently asked to help lead the women's ministry in my local church. I was pretty excited about it until I was given 3 large boxes of paperwork and history from the past 20 years! The ladies who served before our current team did such a fantastic job (and were so organized) that I suddenly questioned my calling to this position.
Gulp.
God apparently didn't tell the board that paperwork ain't my thang.
My team members and I realized quickly that we needed help. AND that we didn't want to reinvent the wheel when it comes to meeting the needs of the women in our church. Thankfully, we have an abundance of resources available to us to help us figure out which direction to take.
If I'd been planning ahead, it would have been really great to take a lil' trip to Nashville for Lifeway's Women's Ministry Leadership Forum this week. They've got a fabulous line-up of speakers, including our own Priscilla, to help equip ministry leaders for the task they've been called to. Rats, I'm missing the whole thing.
(Pouting.)
But wait! Lifeway is live-streaming Friday's events (9am-9pm) so that everyone who couldn't make the trip in person can still benefit....from the comfort of home. That means I can watch Priscilla and everyone in my slippers and robe! Woot! I don't even have to put lipstick on.
Put the coffee on and click here for the live feed....and we'll all "be there in spirit!" Slippers are optional.
You can find a schedule here.

P.S. Do you follow Priscilla's tweets?
too cool
I am so excited!! Little ol' me gets to participate. Woohoo! Even if I'm nursing the baby or listening to repairmen fix my floor from the plumbing problem this week. ;)
Fabulous
Not sure how much time I'll actually have to sit and participate with home schooling, guitar lessons and dance. But it is a great opportunity and I'll jump on when I can!
Priscilla totally brought it!
Priscilla totally brought it! I loved her message and took away so many nuggets to apply to my life. I am so fortunate to work here at LifeWay and to see her in person.
She came into my office and I got to shake her hand and show her a picture of my babies...then I sent a text to all of my friends telling them that, yes, she is absolutely as nice as you would expect her to be...and so.dang.cute!
Now I just need to meet you!
Stacy, how great that you got to meet Priscilla! Now when I get to meet you we can all be real life friends, right??
thank you!
Thank you Priscilla for an incredible word this morning! I am so thankful I got to hear it via the live stream! (Every time I read "live stream" I can't help but think of streams of living water.) So grateful to Lifeway's live stream for making my "living streams" flow even more!!
Back home!
Hey sisters,
Thanks for tuning in to the live stream. I hope that you were encouraged by the message. It was such a wonderful time with the Lifeway team and all the incredible women's ministry leaders that were on campus.
I always enjoy the leadership forum. I salute all of the incredible staff who puts together such a flawless event.
Can't wait to do it again!
Priscilla
I didn't see this post until
I didn't see this post until afterwards but just wanted to stop by and say thanks so much for posting the event. We had a storm that day and I was literally sitting around in my pj's! LOL. It was the first time I have got to hear Priscilla and it was a much needed word for me. Thank you so much.
P.S: I loved the behind the scenes stuff also.
