Greetings E-Friends - It’s great to get to e-chat with you for a minute or two! Even about the little things. The new kitchen knife I bought recently, for instance. I was happy to get the knife, but the problem was that I needed the knife to get the knife out of the package. What’s up with that mega-plastic stuff?

Catching Rhonda on the airwaves
Opportunities to Take Part in the Ministry:
Sign up 10 or more girlfriends for a Purse-uit of Holiness group study and get a FREE book.
Suggested length of study can be as short as 8 weeks, and anyone can jump in anytime to join the study. This is a quick and easy read, yet provides powerful time with the Lord--individually or with a group.
Purchase 10 copies of the Purse book for your group study (discussion guide is included in the back of the book) and we’ll send you a free author-signed copy of The Purse-uit of Holiness. Contact Rhonda for more info.
Adding Some Fruit
Looking to add some extra fruit to your next event? Add on support for a ministry project by having women bring items of need for a mission trip your church is taking, baby things for your local crisis pregnancy center, goodies for women in prison, or items for other worthwhile causes with needs your women can meet. Nothing like adding an extra level of ministry. Ministry on ministry!
