6:15 a.m. Central Time:
BLESSED
Leader: Yvonne Wilson
We are a group of women who love to read the Word of God.
We all have different spiritual backgrounds, different occupations, and family backgrounds.
We get together at 6:15 and chat for 15 minutes about our life or whatever is in our heart for the day or how we can pray for one another.
Then we read widely for 30 minutes – wherever God is directing us. Then we come back together for 15 minutes to share the rich and intriguing things, mysteries, and insights into what we have read. What a blessing it is – so we call ourselves BLESSED.
But He said, “On the contrary, blessed are those who hear the Word of God and observe it.” Luke 11:28
9:30 a.m. Central Time:
Fresh Every Morning
Leader: Dee Gibbs
Fresh Every Morning (FEM) is a group of women that meet Monday through Friday with intentions of praying together, individually reading wide the Word of God (Ignite style), reading aloud as a group through the Bible. Gathering time on Zoom at 8:30am (MDT). Members of this group are from all U.S. time zones, varied ages, and life situations. We do not limit it to the location where you live. We have been meeting together on Zoom since February 2021, most coming from our Ignite experience into our new group. Our door is still open to those that desire to read wide and share God’s Word.
(Monday) We begin our week with intentional prayer as we collect prayer requests from the previous weekend and share among our members. We gather as a group and pray for the concerns the ladies have presented during the weekend. Prayer is our only focus on this morning.
(Tuesday through Thursday) We read wide through God’s Word “Ignite Style,” each lady choosing where she reads for 30 minutes, with discussion following.
(Friday) We gather and read aloud as a group through books of the Bible with mics and video open in the Zoom room. We take turns reading widely through the scripture for about 30 minutes, then members share/discuss what they gathered from the reading.
Our communication with one another often extends into other parts of our day as we share prayer needs, special moments in our lives, encouragement, and information that encourages our reading and study of God’s Word. We typically communicate with one another through text, email, phone calls or postal mail. There are times when we will spontaneously call a time for Zoom Prayer during which members gather (as they are able) to pray for certain urgent situations.
