Wrapping up our Giveaway, another Sweet Giveaway, and a Bible Study...

I have to admit...I'm sad that I haven't made the time to write more frequently as of late. I am super excited about the series (click here to go back to the beginning of the series) we are wrapping up. It has been an awesome privilege to be able to delve into what God's Word has to say about the various questions that have been raised. Still, all good things must come to an end. And, I've got a good number of comments to add to my pool to draw one lucky winner of our "Mommy Shower" gift basket, which contains a copy of Becky Avella's book, And Then You Were Gone: Restoring a Broken Heart After Pregnancy Loss, a $10 gift card to Starbucks, and of chocolates, of course...of the Dove variety! That being said, I want to let you know that I will post the winner tomorrow, so be sure to check back!

Now, you all have to know about an awesome giveaway that is going on and expires October 5th. All you have to do is hop over to the Rise and Shine Retreat blog (click here), read the post, and comment! You will be entered into a drawing to win some awesome prizes, with the first prize being TWO FREE REGISTRATIONS to the Rise and Shine Women's Retreat in Cedar Falls, Iowa, this October 30th! If you are not on our email list, then it may be news to you that we are actually gathering a group of ladies to go to this retreat. Oh, and did I mention that Lysa Terkeurst, nationally-known speaker/ author and President of Proverbs 31 Ministries, would be the speaker! You will certainly be blessed! We would love for you to be a part of it...for more information, please email me at teske@mommieswithhope.com


And finally, I want to let you know that starting next week, we will be starting our Fall Bile Study. Times/locations can be found on the sidebar to your right. We are going to be reading through Becky Avella's book, And Then You Were Gone (a part of our giveaway!), and will have face-to-face as well as online opportunities for you to participate! Regarding the online study, be sure to visit the blog each Wednesday, starting September 22nd. Each week, we will have an "In the Word Wednesday" where the post will pertain to the book we are reading through/studying. The author of our chosen book has actually agreed to participate along with us, so you don't want to miss out!! You can order the book by clicking here...or you just might win it if you go back to the beginning of our Your Questions...His Word series and comment your little heart out anytime between now and tomorrow by noon, when the winner will be drawn!

Blessings sweet friends....oh I just love free stuff! :)
