Good news, good news!! Girl's Club is starting at Tamaki next Tuesday - 8th March 2011. Our families meet together with Reverend Father Setefano and Mother Lealofi. This was to share and discuss the plans for our monthly Girls Club. Girls and their parents were very excited. This is going to be a monthly space for girls 8 years and older. Not only within our parish but for the girls in our immediate community of Glen Innes.
It began with a devotion led by Reverend Setefano, Mark 5, the story of Talitha. This the story of this little girl, a twelve year old who's father was Jairus. Jairus went to Jesus to ask help for his daughter who was dying. When Jesus arrived, she had died, however Jesus told them not to weep...'she is asleep'. Jesus enters her room and tells her "Talitha Cumi" translated 'Little girl, arise'. From this beautiful story we've named our Girl's club, Talitha.
Our aim is to work together and allow Jesus to help us truly arise to the challenges in life! To show his extraordinary power in our ordinary beings.
We look forward to our first session this coming Tuesday. God's many blessings.
Please pray with us for the girls who will be part of Talitha. Thank you.
If you plan to attend, please remember your Bible, pen, book and your $5.00 registration fee. It's going to be fun girls!!
Hi ladies, I really didn't want to be the first to comment lol! But couldn't wait any longer! I'm so very excited about Club Talitha. The devotion shared by our Reverend Father Setefano was so apt. Really made me think about the neat job we have together in making sure we all arise as the young 12 year old did when Jesus said 'Talitha Cumi', young girl arise! Then with what Lealofi - church mother shared - this being a special place for the young girls and ladies. Praying for many hearts to be opened and filled in this 'girls only' space. Praise be to God for this opportunity. May he guide and help us to outreach to all those we will cross paths with. Talitha Cumi!
