Unhindered!


What hinders you from hearing God's call in your life?  Have you thought about that question?  There is so much noise in the world today.  Take time to sit down today and be quiet and listen....  What is God saying to you?  Find a nice quiet place, get out your Bible, get your journal and spend some serious time soul searching pour out your heart to God and then just be still and listen.  What is he saying to you ?

TRBC Women on Mission

Welcome to the Turner Ridge Baptist Church Women on Mission Blog Page.   The purpose of this Blog is to try and help all of us stay connected in this busy fast paced world we live in.  I am new to blogging and will need you to be patient with me as I try and figure this out.  We have an awesome Facebook Page but I wanted to create a way that we could stay connected on line for those who do not have a Facebook Account.

Change a Life, Change the World continues to be the motto for Women on Mission.

                            This year our theme is God's Spirit Unhindered! 

Our Bible Verse is  Hebews 12:1-2   "Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perserverance the race marked out for us.  Let us fix our eyes upon Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God."

What we do as Women on Mission

1. We pray for and give to Missions
2.  Do Missions
3.  Learn About Missions Lifestyle
4.  Participate in the work and outreach efforts at Turner Ridge Baptist Church

As I look back over our past year we have been very busy and it has been an exciting year for missions at Turner Ridge Baptist Church.   We are planning a Missions Celebration for September and more information will follow when I speak to a few ladies and have a date set. 

We are also looking forward to the Beth Moore Simulcast on September 10  hosted by Main Street Baptist Church.  There are sign up sheets in the front and back of the church or you can contact Christy for more information. 

Family Missons Night in July we had an awesome time of bible study and fellowship we read from Matthew 25: 34-46  and gave a report back from the mission trip the church took to Whitley City, Ky. 

Last night I was able to go with the R.A.'s,G.A.'s and Acteens as they visited the Bedford House and sang Happy Birthday to the residents with birthdays this month.  This is a great ministry and it was fun to watch the youth participate and sing to the residents and the smiles on the faces of the residents.  They brought Jesus love to the Bedford House.  How Awesome is this!

We are looking forward to the Missions Reteat next week at Potter's Ranch.  I am so excited to see what Loran has planned for us.  Aug 4-Aug 7. 

Our group is responsible for the food for the Friday night meal if you can help with this please let me know. 

I leave you with this question to ponder,  What hinders you from hearing God's call for your life?

That's all I have for now.  With much love til next time, May God Shine His Glory Upon You!
