Sunday Spa is not about manicures and facials! It’s about Spiritual Rejuvenation and learning new ways to build a relationship with God.
The focus for February’s Sunday Spa for Women is “Naomi’s New Life”. The afternoon begins at 1:45. Lisa Ware will lead our relaxation through yoga. Once relaxed, Carrie Boren will tell us the story of Naomi, relating it to our world today. Then there’s what we like to call a “grazing” break, with lots of tasty treats and refreshment provided.
After the break, when we’re all relaxed and nourished, Carrie will lead us in meditative journaling, allowing us to learn more about talking to God on a regular basis.
For the last part of the afternoon we’ll have a change to tap into some God’s talents we may not realize we have. Jennifer Raynor Sloan will teach jewelry “One Bead at a Time” as a way to show us how to let go of our plans and take life as it comes. All your supplies will be provided.
Sunday Spa is a time set aside for women to come together to Relax, Learn and Create. It’s a perfect afternoon of pampering. The only thing we ask you to bring is a yoga mat, if you have one. (Some yoga mats will be provided.)
