Our First Meeting

Monday night we had our first meeting! It was phenomenal, exactly what we had wanted it to be.

We met at Highland Heights COC, and Peep (Tammy--but everyone calls her 'Peep') was our guest devotional speaker. She talked about marriage, relationships, and how important it is to have a relationship with God and to look for someone who has that also. It touched all of us, and for those who aren't married yet it reminded them whats most important to be looking for in a man.

We also had Megan McDonald, the owner of The Paint Pail in Carthage, TN come and bring her painting supplies. We all painted a cross. Everyone did an amazing job and we all put our own colors, words, and-or favorite Bible verses on them. A BIG thanks to Megan for being a part of our Bible group and helping us paint a beautiful picture!



We had such a wonderful group of ladies. Its amazing just after one meeting how much the GBG means to everyone. A big point about this group is it is "our" group...anyone can come, anyone can give ideas, anyone can let their voices be heard for thoughts and discussions.

The next meeting is already scheduled and the rsvp's keep growing, including the same girls...and new faces! God is so good!!!!

Here are some photos from Monday nights meeting :)

Thank you Megan! :)


We had a total of 18 people attend our first meeting.

We are all busy, we all have families or kids or stressful jobs or needy husbands (haha)...but we still are making time to better our lives by coming together to study! What a blessing it is for this to happen to our lives.

Our next meeting is in February--more info to follow :)
