“My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord,
my spirit rejoices in God my Savior…
The mighty ONE has done great
things for me, Holy is His name.”
Luke 1:46-49
In these words of the Magnificat, Mary proclaimed to Elizabeth her gratitude for the wonderful action of God in her life. Please join us at a dinner for women where we will share together in that same spirit of gratitude and praise of God. After the meal, there will be a time of prayer for the needs of all present and an opportunity to hear Denise share her conversion journey through the transforming love of Christ plus special insights from her book, The Gifts of the Visitation..
Please plan to come and bring a friend to rejoice in the presence of the Lord.
