Abby's New Club

Last night was our third meeting for a new club that Abby is a part of. We are studying a book called A Young Woman After God's Own Heart - A Teen's guide to Friends, Faith, Family, and the Future by Elizabeth George


Chapters
1. A Heart Devoted to God
2. A Heart That Loves God's Word
3. A Heart Committed to Prayer, Part 1

Last night was on prayer. I love how Elizabeth George challenges the girls to set goals to committ time to getting to know God and His Word. It is not about checklists and rules but about a true relationship with our Savior Jesus Christ! The leader, Mrs. Briggs, really makes it fun. She challenged the girls to learn Romans 12:1-2 and gave them a wooden nickel with a Bible verse on it if they learned it. She also plays ice breaker games which the girls absolutely love!





After our study we made flower headbands to use with costumes. A couple of us sewed the bands and then the girls glued flowers onto them. A group will be going to Sun Valley Idaho for a Renaissance event in August and they will wear their headbands. We had such a great time together!

Abby's headband; I think she did a wonderful job picking out the different flowers and arranging them. Way to go Abby!
