Annual Women's Retreat Part 1

There's something about bringing a group of like-minded people together, in a new locale that sparks a specialness between them. Make that a group of believers, and its even more special. Have those believers be women of all ages and you have one amazing experience!

That amazing experience is what happens every year at the women's retreat. A group of ladies - who may or may not know everyone there - come together for the sole purpose of being refreshed and meeting God. Always faithful, He shows up every time, blessing and loving on His daughters.

Our Friday night session began with a great worship package by Angie Queen.
How wonderful to be brought into the presence of God by worship through music. And then our beloved Kim Fowler, shared from her heart.

Through stories and testimony she shared about the power of laughter and how it physically can improve our bodies. She spoke of how having a cheerful heart was not only Biblical, but critical for enduring the hardships that come our way.

Some of us got the point right away. We laughed.


And laughed some more...



Even Kim got tickled.



After Kim's sharing, we had a time of prayer, praying for specific prayer requests, for ourselves, our neighbors, our friends.

It was a most precious time. The presence of God was apparent and a quiet sense of awe filled the room. How amazing it is every time God shows up. His presence is always awe-some.What starts as a single individual praying...

turns into a community of prayers, ...

which turns into a bond that cannot be easily separated...

And this is just the first night! Come back tomorrow to see what God has in store for the ladies here in Myrtle Beach!
