Sunday evening July 25th a team of ladies was privileged to go to Oriana House to have “church” with the ladies there. We worshiped with them through singing, reading a devotional, and sharing the Word of God. We love singing with the ladies and we love watching them as the Holy Spirit softens their hearts. There are always a few tears, even from those of us that minister. The ladies love hearing the wonderful stories of God’s Grace as we give testimony of what God has done in our personal lives. I believe it gives them hope.

We shared with them out of 2 Corinthians 5:10-6:2. We were able to see in God’s Word how in Christ we can have a changed life. Through the power of God we can have new principles, new practices, new purpose, and new power. We also learned together that the Lord will give us new life, a new heart, a new nature, and finally new desires. Psalm 37:3-9 tells us to trust in the Lord, delight in the Lord, commit our ways to the Lord, rest in the Lord, and maybe the hardest one for most of us, wait on the Lord.

We count it a privilege to spend time with as many ladies that want to attend. We have a blessed time, and come away just as ministered to as they have been.

Thanks so much for your prayers for our team as we minister the glorious life changing Gospel of Jesus.

Please mark your calendars for the fourth Sunday of every month and remember to pray for us as we share God’s love with women in recovery at Oriana House on Power St.

ABF PICNIC- July 10th

Our Adult Bible Fellowship  from Maranatha Bible Church, along with Broken Chains Ministry had a picnic on Saturday July 10th at Mike & Connie Murphy’s house on Portage Lakes.  We just wanted to bless the ladies of Legacy III, Brubaker, and Rahab Ministries with a fun day out.  There was  lots of great food, fishing, and corn toss and a pontoon boat ride.  There were about 15-20 ladies in attendance and 30-40 people from our class, what a great way to assimilate these ladies into the body of believers.  We really hope that all of  you that attended were able to  relax and have some fun, as well as to be a part of reaching out to ladies that need to be encouraged.
