This is an opportunity for us ladies to have time together eating yummy food, getting to know each other better, and having fun!
 
Here are the details you need to know:
  • Choose which time you want to come and sign up (text Melinda [812-327-5223], call the church office, [812-876-6072] or sign up at the welcome desk). 
  • The two times that are offered are to try to include as many as can come, and to make it as convenient for everyone.
  • Buy a gift and wrap it up! Will you choose brown paper packages tied up with string, Christmas paper, a gift bag? Up to you! Spend no more than $12-$15 on a gift that YOU love! The value of the gift may be more than $12-$15 (but please not less), but don't spend more than the amount allowed. (I'm trying to make it fair and fun for everyone.) Black Friday is coming—maybe you will score a great deal on something you love! The gift often says more about the giver—it will be fun to get to see what everyone loves!
  • Ideas: a new hair product, a kitchen gadget, something practical, something whimsical, your favorite treats, something that makes your life easier, something you cannot live without, a self-care item. Choose something that is one of YOUR favorite things!
  • Bring your favorite snack to share—egg rolls, pizza rolls, goat cheese, flaming hot Cheetos?? What is your favorite snack? Please bring it to share!
  • You DO NOT have to bring a gift to attend! There will still be plenty of fun if you choose not to participate in that part of the evening.
I hope you will invite a friend and come!
