Senioritas and Senoras, Hoy es el dia que encendemos para arriba para el dios

Ladies today is the day we fire up for God. It is going to be a wonderful day filled with fun activities, devotion to God and friendship with one another.  We are going to begin by playing a simple game, you will need a few math skills and you must pay close attention.

Senioritas, This is a que bueno game, it really does not have a name

It is as simple as a game should be, you just do as you are told and you will see

Please play close attention and we will put an end to the suspension!

In the end, la senora with the most, will receive a prize of which to boast

And since we are such muchachas linda,  give yourself 5 points if you came with a bible that’s splenda!

Add three points if your toes peak out and any earrings will give you 3 points to shout

Score 5 more if you wear the Mexican color red, and 6 more if you have curls on your head!

Now before you think you are going all right, take 2 away for pants that are too tight!

Add five if your shoes are black and take 3 away if you have a zipper in the back

Now count your buttons, for each you get 2 and take away one for every button that’s blue

Give yourself 5 if your heels are over 2” high and why not take away 5 for Irish green in your eyes!

Que Bueno that was much fun, the next thing we must do is get shirts for everyone ( till – 3:45

You are stamping your shirt to wear and tell others about the fun you had today, and to give an opportunity to share your faith and the blessings that you have received from God. There are shirts for each of you and 6 stamps (show them the paint and stamps – demo ). There are trash bags if you want to protect your clothing or an apron or two. Some will be working on the shirts while others will be working on a fired up bracelet –

( show the bracelet, and what it can say, show the peppers ) but the bracelet has a catch….

For every 4 beads you put onto the bracelet you must shout out a praise to God. He is the author and finisher of our faith and we want to praise him for all that he is doing!

The third activity that we have for you is a Mexican God’s eye pin. ( show and demo- glue and criss-cross the middle go around the outside, glue and add pin back) As you finish a craft please trade places with others. We want all of you to leave today with these three crafts. After you have finished all three crafts we ask you to move to the pews so we know all are finished. Now remember, those that are putting together the bracelet we want you to praise God for all he has done for you, don’t be shy!!

Psalm 121

This day has been a reminder of A fiesta, a celebration , a rejoicing because God is mine and He will watch over me

We are special ladies, called out to serve God.

We have a purpose and are a part of His plan, We can lift up our voices in praise for the

Things that He has done.

We are victors because of Him..

God does not promise us smooth sailing, just a straight pilot of our ship.

If we believe God’s word, then you must believe that we will go through periods of distress and doubt, of turmoil and darkness. I want us ladies to walk out of this meeting with a renewed sense of God’s presence in our life and a trust that he will guide us and watch over us. with a renewed joy, a renewed sense of service, a renewed love for God.

For my devotion I believe God’s word says what we need to hear, more than any words I could say, so if you have a Bible, please turn to PS 121 if not, I ask that you listen carefully to this psalm.

Ps 121

I lift up my eyes to the hills--

where does my help come from?

2 My help comes from the LORD,

the Maker of heaven and earth.

3 He will not let your foot slip--

he who watches over you will not slumber;

4 indeed, he who watches over Israel

will neither slumber nor sleep.

5 The LORD watches over you--

the LORD is your shade at your right hand;

6 the sun will not harm you by day,

nor the moon by night.

7 The LORD will keep you from all harm--

he will watch over your life;

8 the LORD will watch over your coming and going

both now and forevermore.

As we close this ladies retreat, I ask you all to join hands in a circle to pray

Thank you Lord for this wonderful day,………
