I know it is hard to believe but we have already started our preparations for the Pure Joy International Retreat Ministry, Inc. Public of Georgia Retreat for October 25-28, 2023. (Tbilisi, Georgia)
If you know of a missionary serving cross-culturally in
that part of the world that could benefit from such an opportunity, please ask
them to go to our website www.purejoyinternational.org
to register starting next week. Please
remember first come first serve. We limit
space to the first 50 registrants and then go to a waiting list.
If you did not get
a chance to see some of the pictures from our Portugal Retreat in April 2023,
please go to our website mentioned above and click on Retreats in the headings.
I hope that everyone is having a good summer as it gets
on its way. I know many of you will be working
with church groups coming from the USA and other countries to help with projects
you have going in your locations, others
will be coming home to start a stateside stint, etc. Praying for a great summer for all to His Glory!
Here at home in the USA many families are hitting the vacations
spots for the summer. Personally, I am
getting ready to head to Louisville, Kentucky with one of my great nephews to
the National Beta Club Conference. Pray
for me as will be surrounded by Intermediate kids, ages 9-12 years old. (smile)
Please don’t forget to get the word out about the Public
of Georgia Retreat. The team is already solidified,
plane tickets being purchased, and the hotel locked in. Now all the details that include all of you
that join us on these trips begin to take place, praying, giving, gifting, and going. So, excited to share we have two more
churches joining us in the journey of gifting this trip. First Baptist Claremore, OK and First Baptist
McGehee, AR. We welcome your heart to
join us as we minister to these ladies overseas.
His,
Vickie
