The 9th of September 09 we had our first Tea Outreach. This date was significant because nine has a prophetic meaning linked to "fullness" and "time for harvest".
Ladies in the Silverton Area were invited to come have some tea and cake for the opening of the Silverton Community House. The previous week, congregation members went around Silverton and placed beautifully made invitations into post boxes. From those invitations only one lady responded. So we went out on the street and invited the ladies we encountered.Louise and Lizzy made little booklet gifts with scripture. We gave it as presents with a rose to show the ladies that they are special to God. We sent with them a few extra booklets so that the Word can be distributed to their friends and family as well.
The ladies that came are all from different walks of life but have one thing in common. They all spoke of loneliness and isolation. We thank God for bringing them in. Three ladies will be joining us every Wednesday Morning for prayer and Bible Study. We pray that these meetings will bring each and every lady closer to Jesus and bring Jesus deeper into Silverton.
We want to thank the Morning Ladies Cell group of Silverton Congregation for being there, bringing treats and helping in various ways.
