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

Guest Post-The Importance of the Secret Place

This week, our guest blogger is Hannah Holmes.  Hannah is a stay at home mom with a passion to write and share the love of Jesus wherever she goes.  Hannah has served on the Women's Vision Team in the past and is currently serving on the worship team, healing and prayer team and several other ministries.  She is a gifted musician and loves spending time with The Lord as He unlocks His deepest mysteries in her heart.  You can find Hannah at www.hannahboneholmes.com The Importance of the Secret Place There was once a time when I thought my “ Quiet Time ” with the Lord  had to fit into a prescribed method.  In fact, when I heard about people who avidly set aside time in their “prayer closet,” I always wondered how they did things.  What was the magic structure that made the time  right  before God ? Was it, like…: 3 minutes – reading daily devotional 14 minutes – reading the Bible 8 minutes – praying, (using the ACTS method, of course!!) ADORATION (15 seconds)
