Sparrows
Dori Baggs sent me this information about Sparrows, a ministry of TenthWomen. Sparrows is meeting Saturday, October 8, 1-3 pm. Contact Dori to RSVP:
"Sparrows is a ministry that seeks to develop intergenerational relationships between women of all ages. This is a ministry of spiritual mothering using the Titus 2 model of "older women teaching younger women." We are reaching out as spiritual mothers, aunts, big sisters, and grandmothers. In our society today we don't have many opportunities to mingle with those in a different generation from our own! Sparrows is one way to do just that.
"We are building bridges to different age groups through sharing the Word & making crafts. It may sound like a silly combination, but girls love crafts and making friends! Conversation flows when your hands are occupied! Many great relationships have started around the Sparrows craft tables! We craft after the devotional; so its easy to talk about what the speaker said.
The crafts/devotionals are geared for girls ages 5 through early teens, but TenthWomen wants to especially encourage gals from teens up through older adults to come to Sparrows to minister to the younger girls. They can befriend the younger girls and get to know them and talk to them about the Lord. By doing so these women are also developing their own leadership and communication skills, using the gifts the Lord has given them to bless the next generation. "
