I'd like to volunteer to host this week/month's Women's meeting at my house this Thursday, May 4, begining 6:30-9:00+ I know that it is not a central location (SW Austin) but it would only be this once (: and I may have a hard time getting to a meeting held elsewhere.) Plus!... I have woken up with some really exciting idea for having us women of AMC organize and lead the worship service for this Mother's Day coming up in two weeks. It would be awesome, I assure you. (Of course we should also snap up a booking for the 5th Sunday in July, which could also be fabulous (in a non-boastful, humble way, of course.) Today, however, I really look forward to Youth Sunday. See you, Heidi P.S. In case my house works for this Thursday's Women's Meeting, the address is 6920 Hansa Loop, 78739 and my phone is 512-565-1436 ----- Original Message ----- From: Holly Herr To: Garland Robertson Cc: Austin Mennonite Church Sent: Saturday, April 29, 2006 11:01 PM Subject: [amc] Re: Women's group next Thursday This Thursday is our "certificate" ceremony for the people in my program, so I'll have to miss our women's group. I'm bummed. Holly On 4/29/06, Garland Robertson <lauralarue@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: Hello Ladies.... I just realized that I will out of town on the first Thursday of May which is our scheduled women's group at our house. I have a couple of ideas and want to ask what you think about them. First, would you all like to meet at a restaurant or place like "Soup R Salad"...or "Susie's Chinese Restaurant" ... or "Luby's"... instead of someone else hosting at their house? These places I mentioned are on Anderson Lane (Luby's is on Steck & MoPac) which is the main road behind where we live so it might be central. OR someone could volunteer to host this month OR have another idea for a place to meet. Also....we need to talk about Carrie's shower which I will host at our June meeting. Carrie has given some great suggestions of things she needs for her little one and I will send that list out in a separate e-mail. Then, if you saw Garland's e-mail, we need to talk about hosting one of the 5th Sunday services. Marilyn mentioned she has a reading she could share for the "sermon" and others have also mentioned some ideas that sound interesting. If that has changed please let me know...since we haven't talked about this in a while. So, as you can see there is a lot to discuss. I will miss being with you but I have to admit I'm pretty excited about being in Houston with my sister who is flying down from Virginia. It's our 'sister's weekend.' Please let me know what you think of my ideas and if someone has different suggestions please feel free to express them.
