We were delighted to have Cheryl Scanlan as our speaker from Way of Life Coaching.
She is the mom of 2 boys who are at NCSU.
Point 1:
When I am afraid, I will trust in you!
Point 2:
God doesn't just tell us "Don't be afraid." God tells us why!

Point 3:
We get to decide if we will set our minds on things above rather than on things of this earth.

Remember, our kids are on loan to us!
Cheryl invited us to attend two Way of Life Coaching Events.

Promised Land Living Alumni & Guest Event
Saturday, May 16th 9am-12pm at Crossroads
"It is so easy for ALL OF US to fall back into old patterns that steal our joy!
In our time together, we will revisit some of the concepts and applications for how to move from "stalled" or "stuck" (simply surviving), into a different mindset that frees us to move forward (thriving). We will also introduce new material and discuss how to release ourselves from the traps that we set so that we can experience the fullness of joy in our walk."
Promised Land Living Summer Light
Wednesdays from June 17 to August 12
6:30-8:00pm at Crossroads
A free e-book devotional is also available online.

We will also have our adorable magnet craft that was delayed because sweet April's girls were sick.
Feel free to get some
photos together that you could use to make magnets like the ones April
did of her sweet triplets above. You'll need a picture that you can use a
1" (in diameter) circular section.
Tracy and Allison's groups have brunch for April 14th.

April 7 Small group playdate /
Leadership team meeting at Crossroads
It's time to think about your role
in MOPS next year!
At the core of our MOPS ministry is a team of women who share the leadership of a
MOPS group.
Please look over the description of our team and
see if there is place for you to help serve and add to the success of
this group!
Some
of our Leaders are returning next year so there may or may not be a
vacancy for the Leader but having a team of people to support that
person would be wonderful for some of the positions, especially
hospitality.
If you are interested in learning more about
leadership, please speak with your small group leader and plan to join
us at our May 5th Leadership Team meeting.
