Fun and fellowship on Sweet Wednesdays

As always we girls had a blast at our regular Sweet Wednesdays gathering!  It’s so nice to make this a “girls night” yet reserve the right to include “the boyz” whenever we feel like it (isn’t changing of mind a woman’s God-giver prerogative?

This time we met at Jo-Ann’s house – always a lovely and spacious place to connect!  We all love how she has so many different, cozy “conversational” nooks around her house.  It’s like, we can all be hanging in her kitchen, yet break into small groups of 2 or three sometimes and have little conversations in distinct areas of her kitchen or gather round her island and hang out as a large group!

Plus, we talk about anything and everything!  Whether it’s about work or kids or making new treats or losing weight (when we make too many new good-tasting treats!) or new ways to connect with Jesus it is always such a fun encouraging time to just be ourselves, share all of our joys and burdens and encourage each others in our walk with God.  The best part is talking about our husbands. (Whoops!  Don’t tell them…they might not let us ever come back! =)

Anyways, for those of you who are new and just getting connected with the LIGHT! we hope that you will come and experience the joy of Sweet Wednesdays for yourself at our next get together.  You’ll be glad you did!

*** October 4th, 2026 *** 

Can you believe fall is here?  All Hallow’s Eve and Thanksgiving is just around the corner.  We wish you the wonderful opportunity to experience God’s beauty with the changing of the leaves and colors of His amazing creation!

Our prayer here at the LIGHT! is that you would experience God’s love and reflect the light of Jesus to all whom the Spirit brings into your life.  In excelsis Deo!

Please pray for the war that we are undertaking with Iran right now.  Pray for the soldiers who are in harms way and for the family of those who’ve fallen.  Pray that we would be able to achieve peace and be clear about why we are there.

Please continue to pray for our divided country.  May not only the Truth of Jesus prevail but also the “truth” of reality.  Helping Americans to focus more on solving problems using facts rather than debating even what the facts are is much more productive.  Let the politicians focus on *policy*.  We, as the Church, should focus on our *culture* and not depend on policy to define culture.  As we have said many times, “you can’t legislate morality.”  We can, however, be “winsome” as the Bible encourages us to be, and “win some” of our friends who are not yet believers to the faith!

Please pray for peace in the Middle East between Hamas and Israel.  We unequivocally support Israel’s right to defend itself.  We support non-Hamas affiliated Palestinians who want peace – they need humanitarian relief.  Israel should not be oppressing these folks.

Continue to pray for the Ukraine & Russian people suffering under Putin. Please pray for President Trump to stand against this aggression and to ensure the continued aid for the Ukrainians to keep fighting for their independence from the authoritarian regime of Vladimir Putin. 

*** Based on your feedback we will shift to hosting the services online even after the risk of COVID has lessened ***

Services
Our current focus is on learning more about “Welcoming the Stranger” – God’s heart for us as His people in how we show hospitality to those who are aliens in our land – status notwithstanding.

Looking forward to seeing everyone there!
