3/23 Meeting Recap
At our last meeting:
1. Material:
Chapter 2. "Where are you with God right now?" When was the last time or have you ever asked your spouse this question? It is unbelievably encouraging to have the love of your life keenly interested in the health of your soul. In this chapter, we looked up many bible verses to see what blessings we receive when we stand firm in our faith. It stressed the importance of not having just surface banter in our religion. Instead of just focusing our time on the "usual activities" of church, we should focus on the relationship and become more like Christ. If you want to have an extraordinary marriage, the first priority is seeking and knowing God the Creator of marriage individually.
2. Meetings:
Next meeting is Thursday April 6th.
3. Social Activities:
4/8 - Andrew's 4th Birthday party at River Legacy Park at 4:30pm.
4/20 - Madelyn's 4th Birthday party at Chuck E Cheese's at 6:00pm.
4/22 - Maria's 4th/Mikel's 1st Birthday parth at the Dixons at ??pm.
5/6 - Angie & Roy's baby shower. This will be a no kids event and will turn into an after party at our house. More details to follow.
Still need to schedule an IKEA trip and a trip to the drive-in theater.

3/7 Meeting RECAP
At our last meeting:
1. Material:
We discussed the importance of having a plan for our marriage. We also went over areas of improvement for growth in our marriages. God can do more for our marriages than we can ever imagine. Even though we each have strengths and weaknesses individually in our marriages, we are blessed to know that God can use our strengths together to impact His work.
Thanks to the Gery's for leading this first chapter. Good Job! It was very interesting to see what type of animal personalities people had. It will also be interesting if the lion shows up in his lion costume to the next meeting. Remember our 30 day action plan is to have weekly dates. We will be leading the next chapter on March 23.
2. Meetings:
Next meeting is Thursday March 23.
3.Social Activities:
Nothing else in March due to everyone being pretty busy/vacations.
We have 3 children's birthday parties in April: Andrew's on the 8th, Maddy's on the 20th, and Maria/Mikel's on the 22nd. More details to follow.
On May 6th: baby shower for Angie & Roy. This will be a no kids event and will turn into an after party at our house. More details to follow.
Still need to schedule an IKEA trip and a trip to the drive-in theater.
The trip to see Pastor Scott was a huge success. He was so surprised to see us and we had a wonderful time. We had a great turnout, eight families if I recall right. Those who didn't go, the Woodlands is a beautiful place to visit. There is a lot to do and see. I will be posting pics soon.
