Looking For Some Fun?

This is a big week for Tennessee ministers wives. Our state convention thinks that their ministers wives are important so they are providing a retreat (September 9-10) at their Baptist camp at Carson Springs. As one of the retreat planning team members, I can tell you that if you do not laugh, fellowship, let your hair down, or go home refreshed then it will be your own fault.


The retreat theme is Friendship and Chocolate-The Rich Things in Life. (You should know me by now that chocolate is a daily part of my life). The ladies that have worked on this retreat are all chocoholics, and although we have only met a couple of times, we have developed a friendship. We have laughed, worked, brainstormed, and yes, ate chocolate getting ready for this event.


Girlfriends, I promise that you will be richly blessed at the retreat. First, you get to stay in beautiful east Tennessee. Nature just cries out the glory of God there. Second, you get to fellowship with other ladies who walk in your shoes. No one understands a minister’s wife better than other ministers wives. Third, you DO NOT have to wear a dress, panty hose are a no-no and you CAN have fun. (Makeup and doing your hair are optional as well). Fourth, God has provided this retreat to refresh, renew, and for relaxation. You do not have to prove yourself to anyone and you get to have some alone time with God and girlfriends.


I hope you are able to attend the retreat. To registered, check out the Tennessee Baptist Convention website at www.tnministerswives.org or contact Lana Rose, Ministers Wives Ministries for TBC, at 1-800-558-2090, ext. 2008.


See you there!
