LYDIA - 2^nd Wednesday, 7:30 PM Nancy Penrod’s home, Leader - Marge Moss

We meet on the second Wednesday of each month at 7:30 at a member's home. Dessert and beverages are provided. We have members who work and those who are homemakers. Our children range in age from infant through college and beyond. Our meetings include devotions and discussion of upcoming functions within the UMW. After or "break for cake" we share our trials and tribulations in life, plan craft nights and end our meetings with a prayer of our joys and concerns. Our group meets for fellowship, spiritual growth and U.M.W. business. Our spiritual growth is informal with readings or challenges followed by group discussion, always Christ centered, which help us, as women and mothers, come close to God. We have a Secret Pal to remember through the year with thoughtful gestures. The Secret Pal is revealed at our annual Christmas party, when we pick new ones. We help with the rummage sales, bazaar, Mother/child dinner and all UMW functions. Our group is always open to new members who find our meeting time convenient and have similar interests. Through meeting, we learn more about who and what we are, share our joys and concerns about our families and friends and grow toward our knowledge of the Lord. We are able to share from the heart and gain help and strength from each other.
