Allow me!

Received this nice little write up from Mennonite Women Canada president, Erna Neufeldt.
She asked that I post this on our blog site. She sent the picture as well!

Congratulations Waltrude and women of Mennonite Church British Columbia (MC BC)

Mennonite Women Canada (MW Canada) is very pleased to have a representative from BC on our Executive again. This results from the creation of a Women’s Ministry by MC BC chaired by Waltrude Gortzen.

Waltrude has been a guest at our Executive meetings for the past 2 years. We have learned to appreciate her enthusiasm for the Christian sisterhood, her energy and her sense of humour.

I look forward to meeting as many of you as can come to the MW Canada Annual Meeting and Workshop July 1, 12:30 at Ambrose University College in Calgary, the site of Mennonite Church Canada’s Annual Assembly. For your information you need to register for this meeting in order to get a meal ticket.

Blessings,

Erna Neufeldt, President,

Mennonite Women Canada

Checking in ! ! !

I know that there are probably some of you out there that are waiting and wondering where the "Inspirational Day" update is, right?

I am working on it and will post pictures and a write up and a few days.
Have just not had the energy to do anything. Came down with a nasty bug and have been dealing with that for the last 2 weeks.

After the Inspirational Day was over and we had our debrief meeting and everything was more or less done, I guess that I just "crashed and burned" as Janette Thiessen at the MCBC Office described it! :-)

I am feeling a lot better and will be back to normal in a few days, I'm sure!

In the mean time, you ladies need something to read right?
Well, check out this link:

The story you will find there is about one of our MCBC Women. Some of you will already have met her, either in your own church or at our annual ladies retreat at Camp Squeah!.

Enjoy!
