Today, I had my monthly time with the NEHBC widows. I genuinely love my time
with these ladies on the first Tuesday of each month. We had a very good
gathering today. We prayed together 3-4 times, read and discussed the
Scriptures, wrote letters of encouragement to some NEHBCers in need of such,
concocted a plan and made assignments to reach out to an NEHBCer about to
become a widow, dialogued about some big upcoming things at NEHBC, and
discussed some of the challenges they face as widows. There was crying,
laughing, and sharing about some very personal things. Lunch at a local
Chinese restaurant was a hoot--the kitchen workers came out to see the scene
when we sang "Happy Birthday" to one of the widows. These ladies love each
other and their church and are very important to the life of NEHBC. May the
Lord bless our widows.
