TABLES OF LOVE~~~

Our last Tables of Love Event at our church
 filled us with so many emotions.

In the year of each event our committee spent many months
planning, on phone calls & selecting a speaker and needed items.
The last two months were spent fine-tuning plans and
welcoming hostesses for the event.
 
Before our event in 2019 each of us felt
the Lord leading us to welcome a new generation
of women from the church to spearhead the event.
 After finally admitting our thoughts to each other,
we shared, prayed and spoke with our pastor, Bro Jim.
 
Another change that year was the naming
of the new Women's Ministry Leader, Julie Gonzales.
She hosted this year's Tables of Love 
with guest speaker Catherine Johnson.
 
Tables were beautifully decorated with scripture themes.
A delicious meal of salad with citrus dressing, 
pork loin with a cranberry mix,
dressing, bacon wrapped beans and roll was enjoyed. 
Two kinds of dessert were scrumptious!
 
Ladies gathered...viewing the tables, talking & laughing,
sitting & enjoying the meal with table-mates,
hearing an encouraging word from the speaker.
 
As I was enjoying the evening, I was reminded
of the TOL events our team planned and
the wonderful team we were together.

This evening...I missed my sweet ladies.
