Women of the Church ... An Invitation to Breakfast!
FOOD FOR THE BODY AND SOUL
"Refreshing Hope"
Saturday, March 20 in the Chapel
8:30 - 10:00 am

Speaker: Dorcas Thompson

Please consider joining us for this popular event which delivers good food, great fellowship and an inspirational message. Dorcas Thompson will be speaking on the topic "Refreshing Hope." A native of the Boston area, Dorcas has been a public school teacher, a school librarian and tutor. She has ministered in a multitude of areas within the church through the years as a pastor's wife and woman of God; roles which included being a speaker, retreat leader, counselor and Bible teacher. Together with her husband, Bill, she has authored several books on history for young people. Also a mother, Dorcas finds great joy in her daughter, son in-law and three almost perfect grandchildren!

Raised in a dedicated Christian family, Dorcas was nurtured in the Scriptures from earliest childhood. On her life's journey, she has encountered several significant challenges where hope has been an integral part of her experience. She is happy to be able to share from God's word her understanding of Refreshing Hope and the powerful effect it has on our daily living.

Our mission outreach for this spring morning will combine two of Dorcas' loves: children and books. Please bring children's reading books with you to share with several of our Wayne Presbyterian Church mission partners. These books may be fiction, nonfiction, or biographical and appropriate for children ages pre-school to 5th grade. Books with multi-racial characters are particularly appreciated. Please join us ... you'll be delighted you did!

RSVP to the church office at 610-688-8700. Childcare will be provided upon request.
