Each member is taking a turn in these at weekly meetings. The group held a sleepover at the church recently. Posters with French Bible verses were made for Maria Dalton to take to Haiti. A serendipity exercise started An Experiment in Hope and Freedom. With pictures and labels there were discussions on kinds of designer jeans. The modern parable God's Jeans Shoppe showed that each person is unique and special to God. Vespers were entitled Dare to Be. A collage Free to Be showing "Signatures" was made and worship was prepared in small groups on this topic. Games, Jazzercise, movies, birthday cake, singing and a little rest were followed by breakfast together. Lucknow CGIT is doing a Study of Women of the Bible.
