“There’s times when life pulls us down for various reasons. We need to be reminded to hold our head up high and remember we are a princess to Christ,” said Debbie Keaton, East Cullman Baptist Association WMU (Woman’s Missionary Union) director.
On March 25, about 300 women were reminded of that fact at the association’s fourth annual Ladies Mini Retreat held at Northbrook Baptist Church, Cullman. This year’s theme was “Daughter of a King: Living Like a Princess in a Not-so Fairytale World.”
The event consisted of a fellowship dinner, with guest speaker Debbie Childers of The Reality Group, worship by April Pearson of Basket Case Ministries and a missions project. The project was to prepare tote bags for Princess for a Day kits to be delivered to cancer treatment facilities in the Cullman area. The women filled 116 totes with goodies like devotionals, books, lotions, pens, candies and throws and prayed for those who would receive them.
As in years past, the retreat was a “blessing.”
“From the very beginning when we met in the sanctuary and began to worship … it was absolutely amazing,” Keaton said, adding, “Every [part of the retreat] was something that each lady could relate to.”
