When we first began to meet together, it was always my hope that we could build a community together, where encouragement, accountability and mentorship could thrive. I think, in our generation, we are easily exposed to so many ungodly examples from other women, it's easy to believe that this is the norm or that "I am the only one who is serious about Jesus". I lived much of my High School life this way, which is why I abandoned my relationship with the Lord in college. I was tired of being, "the only one".
The reality of the matter, however, is that there are hundreds of young women out there who also feel as if they are "the only one", so if all the "only ones" could come together, we would no longer feel apart and separated, rather we could gain strength together, in Jesus!
I was pleased to have 3 of my mentors join us for this very special event, in celebration of our ONE YEAR as an official Bible Study! We played games, had AMAZING FOOD, enjoyed sharing and learning from wiser, older women and just had a beautiful time with each other. This Luncheon, for me, was a success because I feel as if the vision and hope of creating a Christ centered community of women has become a reality. We may be small in number, but the potential of spiritual growth and encouragement has no boundaries!
