Let's Get Together Wrap-Up

Dear Beltway Women,

”Let’s Get Together” was an overwhelming success!  Thank you so much for joining us last Thursday to celebrate our Lord’s goodness.

I know some of you were surprised when we began the evening with that powerful and upbeat video “Break the Chain.”  I tell you, I was so happy to see most of you grab hold of the idea and participate with us in singing, shouting, clapping and dancing!!

Also, there is nothing sweeter than to hear over 300 women give glory to God in worship and celebration.  Thank you Cherith Newman and the worship band for using your gifts to lead us in that worship.

The testimonies from Hannah Holmes, Kristi Andrew and Kayla Weinkauf were proof that our God is alive, He sees and hears us, and He speaks to us and transforms our lives.  Thank you ladies for being so vulnerable to share the personal things that God has done in your life.

It was thrilling to hear Melissa Weaver recite her poetry “A Definition” of hope; it was such an encouragement.  As a matter of fact, we have posted that poem on the blog today so we can continue to share God’s encouragement with others.  Thank you Melissa for being bold to share your God-given talent and gifts with our women.

Most of all, I was excited to introduce my good friends to you, and I’ve heard from so many of you how blessed you were by listening to our leadership share their stories and give encouragement and wisdom from what they have learned in their journey of life.   We could have talked for a few more hours I’m sure!

Overall, it was amazing to see the connections that were made between various women and the generations.  It was truly a blessed night.  Thank you again Beltway Women for pursuing the Lord with me!

Love,
DeAnna

Breakthrough by Audra Butler

I have been feeling some very strange and growing emotions since quarantine began.  I can’t define them. The only way to describe them are jumbled and cloudy.  It’s as if my mind and heart are growing cloudier with each day. I was texting back and forth last night with a dear sister (because that’s what you do in quarantine 😂 ).  Her texts to me were the exact feelings I had been experiencing.  It was confirmation that we were to start praying for breakthrough. I woke up early this morning and was so ready to sit in His presence, open His word, read what He had for me and hear His sweet voice.  But, when I looked outside, the sunrise caught me!  I immediately ran out to enjoy the pinks and oranges filling the sky.  Then, I turned the opposite way and I was in awe of the almost full moon and a Great Blue Heron sitting so majestically on the neighbor’s pier.  Our Creator’s beauty always outdoes itself and speaks an infinite amount of word...
