Two events for Ministers Wives in November

Well, ladies, our blog has been online now for 4 1/2 months. Haven't you enjoyed reading the posts by Tara, Vickie, Dana, Jeanne, and Karen? What a great job they have done making us think about our lives and our ministries. I pray more of you will start to leave comments--we truly want to hear from you.



I'm posting today to let you know about two events we will be hosting at the Tennessee Baptist Convention annual meeting at FBC, Hendersonville in November. These are two events specifically for ministers wives--note the word "ministers," not just the pastor's wife but all staff wives--education, music, youth, administration, etc.



November 10: "The Good Cup, a meeting place for ministers wives" is a new annual event that will be held at FBC, Hendersonville from 1:00-3:30. This will be a coffee-house setting with two speakers and round table discussions. We will start off with Holly Thompson, our channel 4 morning anchorwoman here in Nashville. Bill Choate from TBC, will facilicate round table discussions, then we will finish up with Kay DeKalb Smith, a well-known christian comedian from Brentwood, Tennessee. This will be a great time for you to get to know other ministers wives in our state. We will be in the Youth Pit area at FBC, Hendersonville and there is no cost. We are planning on you--come to the Pastors Conference with your husband and join us at "The Good Cup."



November 11: Annual Ministers Wives Luncheon. Our theme this year is "Help! I Need a Lift." This luncheon will be at Long Hollow Baptist Church in Hendersonville. We are working on shuttles to provide transportation from FBC to Long Hollow. More information will be on our website about these shuttles. Kay DeKalb Smith will be with us again on Tuesday as our main speaker and entertainer. The planning team is working hard on your gift bags, special gifts and door prizes. I can already tell you that one door prize is a cruise and one is a Cracker Barrel rocking chair. This luncheon will begin at noon and close around 1:30. Cost is $15. You can register online at http://www.tnministerswives.org/ in a couple of weeks. If you would like to register now you can send a check payable to Tennessee Baptist Convention to PO Box 728, Brentwood, TN 37024, attention: Joyce Harvey.
