The rain and ice didn't deter Southeastern women from fellowship and learning about Christ's abiding love!
In case you missed the event, or want to walk down "memory lane", enjoy the pictures below!
The night started out with setting up and preparing for the "fon" due event!
Women slowly began to trickle inside from the chilly, icy air.
After registering, women quickly began loading their plates with yummy treats to dip into the chocolate that was awaiting them on their tables.
Let the fun and messiness begin...
Catherine Blinson started the evening out with a fun game.
Gift cards were given to the winners...
After some gab and games had taken place, the women spent time worshiping Jesus' magnificent name.
After a wonderful time of fellowship and worship, Lauren McCall, a current student at Southeastern, spoke about Lifestyle Evangelism.
Referring to the words of truth in John 15, Lauren gave practical tips in how to abide in Christ in a personal context as well as when sharing the gospel truths with those around us.
“I am the true vine, and my Father is the vine dresser. 2 Every branch in me that does not bear fruit he takes away, and every branch that does bear fruit he prunes, that it may bear more fruit.3 Already you are clean because of the word that I have spoken to you.4 Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me. 5 I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing. 6 If anyone does not abide in me he is thrown away like a branch and withers; and the branches are gathered, thrown into the fire, and burned. 7 If you abide in me, and my words abide in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you. 8 By this my Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit and so prove to be my disciples. 9 As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Abide in my love. 10 If you keep my commandments, you will abide in my love, just as I have kept my Father's commandments and abide in his love. 11 These things I have spoken to you, that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be full.12 “This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. 13 Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends. 14 You are my friends if you do what I command you. 15 No longer do I call you servants,for the servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all that I have heard from my Father I have made known to you. 16 You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit and that your fruit should abide, so that whatever you ask the Father in my name, he may give it to you. 17 These things I command you,so that you will love one another.
