And then, when I was not working at the 8-5 job, I was teaching & have never been able to participate in things that are planned at church. Always a conflict. I hope I did not offend you, in my above vent. That paragraph up there is a perfect example of me VENTING! I hope you understand. Maybe I should start my own blog. Well, actually, I have one, just never post on it, and no, I will not give out the www for it. haha.carolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00098807914830127730noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3224772549167553957.post-28639114319634172832011-11-09T18:41:32.168-08:002011-11-09T18:41:32.168-08:00OK, I have to comment. When you say, "It see...OK, I have to comment. When you say, "It seems like women's ministry in churches primarily focuses on the stay at home mom or the widow", I have to say I disagree about the widow part. I've been a widow now for 14 years and oh how I hate that word. And I've only been aware of one activity at my church a year that is for the "widows" and it's a Christmas dinner that is also a Deacons Christmas dinner. They invite all the widows. Whoopie. I went once, well, maybe twice, and felt like I was sitting there with a big fat red A on my shirt. All the deacons were there with their wives, and all the widows just stuck out like a sore ****. Can't you tell I love this subject? I have not been aware of anything else for the "widows" at my church or any other church. So.....this is what's on my heart. And yes, I think we should reach out to everyone. You are correct. But I'm going to quit whining and go to bed. Alone.carolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00098807914830127730noreply@blogger.com
