Past Activities

October 2022: We had a “Ladies’ Luncheon” at the Red Dutch Barn in Greer, in which we kept it to a simple but enjoyable time of potluck food and fellowship. In spite of the effects of Hurricane Ian coming through the day before, the Lord gave us a gorgeous day for the luncheon. We are grateful to Him for the blessings of sweet fellowship together.

October 2020 brought a fun "Big Screen Fellowship" time for our women. Those who attended the event enjoyed chatting outside with friends while getting their yummy snacks for the evening. Popcorn, pumpkin bread, grapes, and hot and cold beverages were available. The kids enjoyed a simple craft of making a pumpkin night light. Then we settled down in the parking lot with our lawn chairs and cozy blankets/sweaters handy to enjoy an evening of singing together, playing texting games put up on the big screen, watching pre-recorded stories that happened during COVID-19 lockdown, and pre-recorded testimonies of God's working in the lives of some of our women. We also had "live" testimonies from two of our women.
