Time Management Tips--This Tuesday Night

Do you feel as busy and rushed as I do? Do you feel as though you've got plates spinning . . . home, family, work, ministry demands, friends . . . and you don't wish for any plate to fall and crash? But sometimes a few feel "chipped?"

Why not come out for a relaxing evening with AWMinistries this Tuesday, Nov. 14th. Come as you are--bring your Bible, and be ready to connect with some deeper truths regarding time management techniques, prayer, the Prodigal Son, and living a Great Commission lifestyle.

Let's see if we can spend a little over an hour, and infuse some meaning and clarity into our week together! There will be coffee and treats, fresh flowers and warm fellowship.

Brown Agape room (last room on the left down far east hall). 7:00 pm sharp to 8:30 pm.

Questions/responses . . . email me. Or call 905 382 1935; or 716 876-5570 ask for Peter and leave a message.

Rich blessings to you all.
Jennifer C.

***Join us for an "Explosive" Evening ***

Hey Folks

I hope you can join us this evening, Tuesday, May 9th.

We're going to learn some interesting facts about the Balkans.

I have a great Missions Video Vignette.

We'll worship together, share God's goodness and life-lessons we're learning,
work on our AW Portfolios, pray for one another . . . fellowship together in a rich, edifying way.

Then . . . we're going to get down to work on a FABULOUS craft, led by Kathy Rae and Carrie Wells. They'll explain. But suffice it to say, it's going to be quite "explosive!"

:-)

I have prayed for you all this month. And trust that God is working mightily in your lives.
Hope to see you all tonight. I'm looking forward to connecting with you.

Love and prayers,
Jennifer

Praising HIM in Advance!

Dear ones,

Don't forget to bring an extra-special monetary gift for Christine Mindek. As many of you know, Christine is our lovely "adopted MK." We have the blessing of giving sacrifically to assist in paying her air fare for an important trip!

So pray about it, and see what God lays on your heart for our very own MK.

We're praying that He will provide a specific number amount ~ so let's trust Him to do it in a miraculous way!

Praising Him in advance!
Jennifer

From "Guest Room" to "Great Room"

Join us March 14th at KAC for a fantastic evening.

I have EIGHT amazing pages of Spring Cleaning Tips! All kinds of cleaning strategies for every room in your house ~ even some fun "dryer sheet" ideas.

We're going to learn some pertinent information regarding Creative Access Countries ~ and how to pray effectively for those on the "front lines."

Turning to the WORD, we'll study and discuss 5 key aspects to "being filled with the Spirit;" how to have the Holy Spirit relocate from your ocassional "Guest Room," to the "Great Room" of your life!

We'll spend some meaningful time connecting in prayer--for our world, our community, and one another.

I have a fun "prayer shamrock" for everyone, as well as a little take-home sweet, spring treat.

So, don't miss out! See you then!

Warm Welcome!

This year with AW Ministries, we are focusing on some very exciting things! We're assembling personalized AW Portfolios. We're supporting our missionaries, our community, our church, and each other in prayer. We're studying about the Holy Spirit. We're challenging one another to go deeper in our Great Commission living.

I want to be able to connect with each of you, throughout the month, to provide resources, encouragement, practical ideas, accountability, and love. I hope we can really develop a sense of "community" in between our monthly meetings.

I am delighted to partner with you all in this exciting ministry. Post a comment, if you haven't yet.

Are you new to "blogging?" It's really an innovative and highly interactive way to connect. I'm excited to incorporate this exciting form of technology into AW Ministries.

That's it for now.
Warmly,
Jennifer

I wanted to leave you with a verse of encouragement:

1 O God, You are my God;
Early will I seek You;
My soul thirsts for You;
My flesh longs for You
In a dry and thirsty land
Where there is no water.
2 So I have looked for You in the SANCTUARY,
To see Your power and Your glory.
3 Because Your lovingkindness is better than life,
My lips shall praise You.
Psalm 63:1-3
