2011-2012 Theme: Being the Hands and Feet of Christ

We are the
Hands and Feet of Christ



September 21 - Kick Off Brunch

Get your feet moving to LIFT as we kick-off the new year. Following a prepared brunch, we are going to have “Show and Tell”! Bring something that will help us to know you better (examples: pictures, something you made or enjoy doing, etc.)

October 19– Learn to Crochet

Come learn a new craft as Melissa Fausey teaches us how to crochet. All supplies will be provided. Come and just watch or pick up a hook and try it with your own hands.

November 16– WAR Jewelry Party

The purpose and passion of Women At Risk, International (WAR, Int’l) is to wrap arms of love around women and children, whispering the message that they were created for purpose and dignity. Janessa Graybill will share about this ministry and will display the jewelry that is sold to benefit the WAR efforts. There will be jewelry available for purchase.

December 14– Cookie Exchange

Get those hands busy in the kitchen! Bring several dozen of Christmas cookies to exchange along with the recipes. We will also have a White Elephant gift exchange so bring something from your home to give as a gift.

January 18– Woman vs. Giants

Our feet carry us through varying walks of life and we each have different “giants” in our lives– guilt, inadequacy, fear, hurts, etc. Lori Apple will lead a discussion on how to deal with these “giants.”

February 15– Tickle Your Funny Bone

Sometimes our hands and feet are so busy “doing” that we forget our need to sit, relax and laugh. Join us as we laugh along with a DVD of Christian comedian Chonda Pierce.

 

March 21– Spring Craft

Betty Scholl will give us a hand making a seasonal craft. We will create “Country Bunnies”. Each person can choose either bunnies on a screen or as a shelf-sitter.

April 18– Comfort Food

This “hands-on” project will have us assembling “Soup in a Jar”. Then Char Graybill will give us some pointers on making homemade bread. All ingredients will be provided.

May 16– End of year Picnic

Let your feet take you to the park beside the Juniata County Library for our entire meeting. Some childcare workers will be there. If you have perennials to swap, bring them along. Remember to bring your picnic lunch.
