AMERICAN BAPTIST WOMEN'S MINISTRIES
March 2019 Update
ABW Meeting has been rescheduled to meet on March 13th at 12 noon in the Fireside Room.
Merletta Roberts, wife of Pastor Dave Roberts, will present the program on “Transforming: Through Humor/Clowning.” Merletta and Pastor Dave are both clowns (no joke intended) and they were a part of a clown ministry at First Baptist in Yakima where Pastor Dave was the minister for 15 years.
It promises to be an interesting program – and all women of the church are invited. Bring a sack lunch and we will provide dessert and beverages.
Coming Soon
April will be our White Cross work day. We will roll bandages and work on a number of other projects. Julie Comstock is coordinating the day so let her know if you have sheets to bring. You might also see what other projects she has in mind and how you can help. In the past we have done hygiene kits, baby layettes, and slings. If you are a person who sews and would like to make some surgical hats and masks those are always in need at our missionary hospitals.
In May, ABW Women’s Conference is taking place in Yakima from May 3-5. The registration info will be out by mid-March, but please save the dates and plan to attend.
There is only a slight increase in prices from last year. Some scholarship money is available. Speak to Janice Holcomb, Registrar/Region Treasurer, if you need a scholarship.
