Once again our daughters arrived for a lovely Literary Tea hosted by a delightful young lady friend of ours. We look forward to each month we have the opportunity to fellowship with one another. This month Avery read from Daughters Of Destiny and Words Of Wisdom. They were all short stories some were true stories as others were character builders. We are so blessed by this time... and hope that many other girls will have such an opportunity to be a part of a group , which reminds me so much of Titus 2.
Each Mother and Daughter brings something to share.
It is almost overwhelming how much food graces the tea table.
It is wonderful!
I must confess though, it really isn't all about the food, as beautiful as it is.
I adore the fact that these mothers and daughters are committing their time to the nurturing of the young girls.
It truly is an encouraging time in which we look forward to each month.
I do consider myself a Titus 2 Woman. And encourage you to think about being the same. Just to be able to bless someone else is a blessing to you and most of all it blesses God.
I am also pulling together an Apron Bee for some of the young ladies who are married in our Church.These ladies also do not have children yet... They have expressed their interest in sewing yet never have sewn an apron. It will be a wonderful opportunity to get together, teach them a little sewing, to talk about child rearing, marriage and to talk about the Lord.
A Titus Woman to me is:
One who has holy behavior -is truthful - sober - teachers of good things
teaching young women - loving husbands- loving children
discreet - chaste
keepers at home (homemaking)
good - obedient to own own husbands
I pray for the younger ladies who have been willing to nurture the younger girls as well as the older ladies willing to nurture the younger wives and mothers...
It is truly a wonderful ministry that will only bless and encourage through our Biblical womanhood.
~ Titus 2:4-15 ~
"encourage younger women to love their husbands,
and their children...
to be kind...
that the Word of God may not be dishonored...
For the grace of God that brings salvation
has appeared to all men,
teaching us ... in this present world, looking
for the blessed hope, and the appearance
of the glory of our great God
and Savior Jesus Christ,
who gave Himself for us..
These, then, are the things you should teach...."
Many blessings to you today and always!

I think this group is such a blessing. I always think of my home as my mission field and raise my girls to feel the same way xoxo Clarice
