Summer 2007 Calendar of Events
Are you one of those who has run "I rested all weekend" into the ground? Be honest. Some of us rest all weekend because we are bored out of our minds. Where are the sistafriends who just like to hang out and have a good, Godly time? We're around. We just have to step out of our "Make it A Blockbuster night" shells and make new friends OR ring up old friends.
The whole point of the matter is that we make time for SISTATIME. I believe the best gift we can give anyone is TIME. It can be dinner, a concert, a play, an opera, rollerskating, bowling, a basketball game or maybe spend the evening in playing board games or of course that ole' Blockbuster night :) Consider starting your own SISTA HANGTIME group. I've started mine. It begins with a phone call or an email to a few sistas. Whenever you start one, write me and let me know how much fun you're having!
