Nine women met at the home of Dorothy and Ed Hinshaw for a delightful tea prepared by Dorothy and served by Ed. The only thing missing was a white cloth over Ed\u2019s arm. All expressed great appreciation for the tea and fellowship. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Jo-an Jacobus brought the program reading and walked us through an article written by Pam Nafula, a Kenyan with a heart for ministry in Tanzania. The message was based on Lamentations 3<\/em> and encouraged us to move forward with faithfulness and endurance despite obstacles. <\/p>\n\n\n\n In our business meeting we signed cards to be sent out to those in need of encouragement and held two of our larger community in prayer \u2014\u2013 John Muhanji of the African FUM office and another who has been revisited with cancer, along with Kat Langelier, who will be having cataract surgery soon. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Our work with Tedford meals was discussed and changes suggested will be discussed further next month. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Dorothy Curtis and Marian Baker shared stories on their trip last weekend to Quebec to visit with a Swahili- speaking Quaker women\u2019s worship group. Slides from this trip will be shared at our July meeting. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Marian Baker closed our meeting with a sung prayer of thanks, hope, and blessings. Our next meeting is July 15 at Helen Clarkson\u2019s home. All invited!<\/p>\n\n\n\n — Martha Hinshaw Sheldon<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Nine women met at the home of Dorothy and Ed Hinshaw for a delightful tea prepared by Dorothy and served by Ed.
