This weekend, in the Dallas, Texas, area, we are expecting over 200 maidens and mothers in attendance, making it the biggest retreat yet. We are both excited about the opportunity for encouraging so many, while at the same time sobered by the tremendous responsibility the Lord has entrusted to us.
God has once again been so good as to send us a dedicated, behind-the-scenes work team who have given of their time and effort to assist us with countless preparations! Many thanks to Rhonda, Cara, Annabelle, Madeleine, Kelsey, Mema, Papa, and Hannah for all the time you have given here at the Maiden's Quest headquarters for this upcoming retreat! We are so grateful for each of you!
Here are a few snapshots from these past few weeks of all the work that's been taking place lately.

Katelin, Rhonda, and Cara labor over the hundreds of prepartions that go into Katelin's hand-made card making elective class. In this picture, they are tracing, cutting, and ribbon tying for one of the six card kits Katelin prepares ahead of time.
Katelin has mastered the art of ribbon tying by now!
Meanwhile, Mom works the paper cutter to prepare pretty papers for the card kits.
On another day, Hannah, Mom, Katelin, and Cara diligently stuff 200 folders with handouts and certificates!
Smile for the camera!

I was so encouraged by your ministry! You girls are an inspiration! And I only saw you through the web :)I visited your main site and found the article: Does home seem boring? The article was just what I needed! I was so excited about your ministry that I set to tell my other blog readers about it.
May your days be filled with the joy of the LORD!
