Mrs. Sharon made a real wedding cake for the fellowship.
We had lots of fun looking through all of the wedding albums.
We played a build a poem game about marriage. The first line was : Marriage is an amazing adventure. Each person had to add a line to the poem, but could only look at the line directly above theirs. We ended up with a quite humorous little poem about marriage. Below, Mrs. Stephanie is contemplating what her line will be.
We also played the clothes pin game. Each lady was given two clothespins. We could not say the word wedding. If you did and you were caught, you lost your clothespin. Mrs. Catherine won the most clothespins and won a bracelet.
We also had a wedding shower for Mrs. Catherine. She received several lovely and useful gifts.
Mrs. Rachel gave a devotion on Psalm 97:12, "Rejoice in the LORD, ye righteous; and give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness." We were encouraged to make precious memories with the Lord. We were encouraged to add those memories to our precious memories list right along with our graduations, weddings, and births. We were encouraged to pass those precious memories we have with the Lord onto others. We are responsible to pass those memories down through generations to come. After the devotion we had a sweet, sweet time of sharing our precious memories and testimonies. There was hardly a dry eye in the room. We also had a special time in prayer for an urgent prayer request. The Lord truly knit our hearts together during this meeting. The presence of the Lord was with us. We left with overflowing hearts and more love for each other.
Each lady went home with a bridal box of chocolates brought by Mrs. Sabrina.
Mrs. Rachel made everyone a cone vase with the theme verse attached to take home as a precious memory souvenir.
Also a special thank you to Mrs. Laurie and Mrs. Charity for helping with the finishing touches on the decorations. We do hope that you will join us for our next LIFT meeting.
