They are like trees planted along a riverbank, with roots that reach deep into the water.  Such trees are not bothered by the hear or worried by long months of drought.  Their leaves stay green, and they never stop producing fruit.  -Jeremiah 17:8

Our speaker this year is Anna Frye.  She is passionate about women’s hearts and teaching God’s Word. Her love for ministry began in MOPS, where she served for 10 years as coordinator, then mentor mom. She now works at Cornerstone Television as a co-host on Hope Today, and behind the scenes as their Communications Coordinator. She is a mom to three teenagers, which has brought a whole new set of joys and challenges. Aside from work and parenting, she enjoys her quiet mornings with a cup of coffee, Netflix and early bedtimes, and dinner out with friends!

Our mission will be for the Trylife Center in Lower Burrell.  We will be having a baby shower, with all the fun that goes with it, to gather much needed supplies for their families.  A list will be provided closer to the date and we are asking all to bring a gift, big or small, to help fill their shelves.
