Prayer for Africa

We specifically prayed for four areas regarding the Africa team:
Salvation, Healing, Safety, and Unity. Here are the Scriptures that the girls came up with to pray over the Africa team.

Salvation:
Ezekiel 36:26 “I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you; I will remove from you your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh.”
Psalm 51:10 “Create in me a pure heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me.”
Rev. 3:20 “Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with him, and he with me.”
Matt. 7:7-8 “Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened.”

Healing:
Proverbs 31:17 “She sets about her work vigorously; her arms are strong for her tasks.”
Isaiah 58:8 “Then your light will break forth like the dawn, and your healing will quickly appear; then your righteousness will go before you, and the glory of the LORD will be your rear guard.”
Isaiah 40:28-31 “Do you not know? Have you not heard? The LORD is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He will not grow tired or weary, and his understanding no one can fathom. He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. Even youths grow tired and weary and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.”
Isaiah 53:5 “But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon him, and by his wounds we are healed.”
Psalm 103:1-5 “Praise the LORD, O my soul; all my inmost being, praise his holy name. Praise the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits-who forgives all your sins and heals all your diseases, who redeems your life from the pit and crowns you with love and compassion, who satisfies your desires with good things so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s”

Safety:
Psalm 4:8 “I will lie down and sleep in peace, for you alone, O LORD, make me dwell in safety.”
Psalm 32
Psalm 46:7 “The LORD Almighty is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress.”
Psalm 121:2, 8 “My help comes from the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth…the LORD will watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore.”
Psalm 125:1 “Those who trust in the LORD are like Mount Zion, which cannot be shaken but endures forever.”
Psalm 23:4 “Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.”
Psalm 27:1 “The LORD is my light and my salvation—whom shall I fear? The LORD is the stronghold of my life—of whom shall I be afraid?”
Psalm 124:8 “Our help is in the name of the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth.”
Psalm 91

Unity:
I Corinthians 13
I Corinthians 3:6 “I planted the seed, Apollos watered it, but God made it grow. So neither he who plants nor he who waters is anything, but only God, who makes things grow.”
Romans 15:5 “May the God who gives endurance and encouragement give you a spirit of unity among yourselves as you follow Christ Jesus, so that with one heart and mouth you may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.”
Colossians 3:12-14 “Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you may have against one another. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity.”
Ephesians 4:2-3 “Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love. Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace.”
Proverbs 11:2 “When pride comes, then comes disgrace, but with humility comes wisdom.”
Proverbs 3:34 “He mocks proud mockers but gives grace to the humble.”

Childcare Needed for Moriah

Hey Ladies... I have a childcare need that I wanted to share with you.  I substitute teach 2-3 days a week, normally Tuesdays Thursdays and Fridays.  My neighbor has been watching her and it was going great, but her family has had a schedule change.  I am looking for someone to possible watch her from 8:45 until 11:45 when she will need to leave for Sonshine Pre-school (she goes in the afternoons.)  Steve is able to bring her over and take her to school, unless someone is willing to do that for us and in that case we would pay you a little extra for gas and time.  It only pays about $3.50 an hour but I know sometimes if you are staying home with your kids anyway every little bit helps.  I also enjoyed my kids having a playmate when I watched kids in my home.  Let me know if you're interested or have questions!  Call me at 816-550-7572 or email me at srmallory6@gmail.com

Women's event coming up at First Baptist.  It is called "Feast on God's Word". Women from our
church will be sharing different ways they dig into the word of God.
Our own Brandi Crowell will be one of the speakers. :) If you are
wanting to do something a little bit different or new with your quiet
time, you might get some good ideas.  It is from 8:30am to noon on Sat.
October 30th.  There is no charge and childcare is free.  
 
Also, the fundraiser for the Schmickles is going to be Sat. Nov 6 at
4:00.  We will be showing Toy Story 3 at the Encounter.  The admission
is free, but we are asking for a donation to go to Kate and Eric.  They
are caring for her sister and her children while she goes through a bone
marrow transplant.  Please keep them in your prayers.  I know that Kate
could use an encouraging email or note.

Zumba, Zumba, Zumba, Zumba (trying to hypnotize you into coming)

Ok ladies I heard some of you say that you would be embarrassed to try zumba in front of a bunch of people. So Jenna, the girl helping me, called today & said most of the women coming are teachers at the intermediate & primary schools & have never done it. It will be a very beginner night & everyone will have to stare at the instructors (lucky me) to follow along. So please come & try it; it is so fun I promise!

Update on Childcare/ Please e-mail Joni

From Joni:  I did talk to Missy and she said we can lower the cost for the rest of the semester.  I've already collected most of your money for September, so we'll just go ahead and keep it at that.  (If you haven't paid yet, it is $20 for one child and $40 for 2 or more.  I'd appreciate it if you could pay next week - cash or checks made out to First Baptist Church.  We've already had a donation to go toward anybody that's having trouble with meeting that high cost, so don't be afraid to pay less if you need to!)  But starting in October, it will be $12 for one child and $24 for 2 or more.  Hopefully that will fit better into our budgets!
I  would appreciate it if you could just shoot me back an email at  jonitapp@gmail.com let me know how many kids you're putting in childcare, just so I can know how much I'm supposed to be collecting!

Blog links and Web Pages

Hey ladies... just to let you know I've added some sites below that I like to visit for helpful tips about cooking, homemaking, etc.  Also if you'd like to send the link to YOUR family's blog I think we'd all enjoy looking at it!  It might help us all get to know one another better!  I won't be able to make bible study tomorrow, so probably just leave a comment on this post if you have a web address for me to add!  Thanks! :)

Aiden William Herx

Hi, Prov. 31 ladies!  I just wanted to pass on the news in case you hadn't heard!  Dustin and Ashlee Herx are the proud parents of a baby boy, Aiden William Herx.  He is 6lbs 7oz and 19 inches. He was born at 10:18 this morning. Congrats Herx family!
From Joni Tapp

Welcome!

Hello ladies! (Proverbs 31 women was taken already for a blogspot, so we're going to be ladies!) My hope is that this blog will serve as a central location for us to post information about the bible study, including chapters we are reading and upcoming events! Please become a follower and leave comments often... it should be fairly easy to join by setting up a Google account. Create a user name and password, then upload a photo if you want to!

This fall we are reading "The Power of a Praying Wife" by Stormie Omaritian. It's an oldie but a goodie! If you're like me and have read the book before, it's been a long time! I pray that we all gain new information and insight from the book and that God will use it greatly in our marriage. For next week, read Chapter 2 and 3 in the book and answer the questions from those chapters in the study guide.  Note that I will post the food schedule for upcoming weeks, and hopefully we can keep up with posting the needs of the group as they arise.  I'm so glad to know you gals and look forward to building some great friendships this year!  Have a great day!
