Who calls me beautiful? Intro week 6-3-10

Good evening! Tomorrow night we start our study in the park. If you have specific prayer requests, please forward them to me at kristaremias@yahoo.com. They will be shared with the group.

Some of you will not be able to join us each week. Some will not be able to join us at all. Laura suggested that we try to follow by blog. After much work on Laura's part and agonizing on mine to post, we have a start.

This week will be an introductory week. We will be asked some ice breaker questions. Please feel free to share them with us! Also, we will be watching a video by Chip Engram, Living on the Edge. You can listen to it on line. Go to living on the edge community. Go to listen on line on the top bar. Under the pic of "God as he longs for you to see him" is a listen or download choice. choose daily boadcast Go to May 26. Please post your comments. We will share them next week in group.

So, the questions for the icebreakers are as follows:
1. If you could be a cereal box cartoon character for just 24 hours, who would you be?
2. On the hottest day of the year, what do you drink to quench your thirst?
3. You are making your beloved his favorite dessert. What is it?
4. What would you leave in your will for the person you cared about the most?
5. What do you consider the most valuable thing you own when you were a teen and now?
6. If you were to perform in a circus, what would you be?
7. If you could have been told one thing that you weren't told when you were a teen, what would you have liked to hear?
8. Name your favorite song
9, When trick or treating as a kid what kind of candy didn't you like to get?
10.What is one characteristic, physical, spiritual, emotional that sets you apart from everyone else?

Last, each week there will be an affirmation that we will focus on as we read. One chapter of the book per week. As you find truths that strike you, share them. This is mine for week one. You are beautiful, my sisters. To me as well as to the One who created you! You are His passion!!

My precious child,
I made you different from the others. On the planet Earth there has never been one like you...and there never will be again. Psalm 139:13-16
