This year I have 8 wonderful young ladies in my Bible Study Group. I started with most of these girls two years ago as seventh graders. Last year was difficult with the death of one of the girls before the school year started. We studied One Girl Can Change the World and I was amazed at how they realized that we don’t know what the future holds and therefore we can be doing things for God now, and not waiting for when we’re older.
This year we’ve started studying Bad Girls of the Bible and it’s been interesting to see how we can learn from the stories of different women in the Bible. There’s been lots of discussion about the relationship between a man and woman in marriage, what’s right and what’s wrong. I pray that they will make wise choices when it comes to boys, and I hope they can help support one another in making good choices with boys.
Also at the beginning of this year I asked them what they wanted to do this year as a group and the Number 1 thing was have a sleepover! So, thanks to the graciousness of my wonderful husband, who cooked and cleaned the whole night and next day, they were able to come over and eat, watch movies, dance, sleep for only 2 hours, but have lots of fun! The next day they wanted to go downtown to a little restaurant and eat together, so one of the girl’s mom sent a truck to take us there and back. We had yummy chicken, tasso(beef), or hot dogs with fried banann or french fries, yummy! It was really great to spend time with these girls and get to know them and build a relationship with them. I love each one of them and they’ve been such a blessing to me to see how God is working in their lives.
Please join me in praying for Anne, Farah, Gerdeley, Sabina, Marie Christie, Rose Kerline, Rose Yveline, and Rose Glendine!
