Well, hello all! I wanted to share a fun event we had at our church Sunday evening!
It was all about yummy tacos and sharing our testimonies or a story of how we have been beyond blessed!
It was a wonderful event. I will say I did not pull this event off. Usually, I help but I did have a vision, and a wonderful team of sweet ladies pulled this vision off. I was not able to help much due to a few personal reasons. I am so thankful for the team and the Ladies Ministry Leader of our local church for hosting this inspiring time of connection.
Here are some pictures I wanted to share. The church provided the cooked taco meat and each lady (unless they were guests) brought things to make a wonderful taco bar. We had such a wonderful variety of toppings, chips, dips and desserts. It was a great evening with a fun game, inspiring personal stories of how ladies have overcome so much with the Lord's help.
Without further ado...
This was a centerpiece. Each table had one. It was a taco kit, mini flowerpot, taco shell holder, and taco sauce. We had drawings for door prizes, and the centerpieces were a part of some of the door prizes. I love this idea that the leader had!!
These fried plantains were amazing!!!!! Some were air fried and some were traditional skillet fried. Both were so delicious.
These little churros!!! YUMMY!
Yours truly!!! 😇
The Mexican sodas were a hit!! The young youth girls loved these.
This small group of women are so encouraging. All of these women are different ages, cultures, and have had such different experiences of life! I love this! It speaks so much to my heart!!! We have people from all walks of life and at all different levels of Christianity. Some still searching and learning, some living for the Lord for 80 years. 80 YEARS!!!! I love this group of women.
I hope you enjoyed this post! Maybe it will spark an idea for your next event or encourage you to be hospitable and invite women into your life to encourage and inspire each other!
The BIGGEST HIGHILIGHT was a young lady sharing how the Lord had turned around such a traumatic event in her life into something amazing. The teen girls were so impacted and afterwards came up to me and said that her story really opened their eyes about how God is always there writing stories and how encouraging it was to see someone run to the Lord during adversity rather run away from Him.
I hope you all have such a wonderful day!
With Love,

ReplyDeleteOh what a fun and blessed evening, it is amazing how we are encouraged by the testimonies of others! Love the Taco About It theme! That is just so fun, and it was precious to see the happy faces of the ladies who came and were encouraged. Many blessings to you dear friend! Thank you for being a blessing to my mother too, you are a precious sister in Christ! Love and hugs!
ReplyDeleteSounds like so much fun. I love meeting with the ladies from our church too.

ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos, dear Chrissy, and lovely smiles! Looks like a fantastic time!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun evening! Thank you for sharing it with us.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful (and wonderfully creative) event! I can imagine what a blessing it was to everyone. I love to hear testimonies but we don't always provide opportunity or the encouragement for ladies to share with one another. The centerpieces are cute, too. Everyone will remember the evening for a long time!
