N. Topsail Beach was our location this year. It has been a year of struggles and trials, heartbreak and joys beyond measure for a lot of the women there. We had several newbies, and that is always exciting. The theme was "God's Greatness Grows Our Faith and Faithfulness".
I know that for me, this year has been a real wrencher. The pictures of waves crashing, the black sand gushing, the sand ripples as God has been dealing with my heart, and then the calmness of the water, the expanse of the sea and the sunrise bringing a new day. Of course than there are times where I can relax and enjoy Him and the friends(sisters) he has given me.
So much in my heart, it overflows to this paper just a bit (lest you be bored, and E tells me too many words on the page) I know God is working all around you and me, and in you and me. He knows and cares down to the last minutia in our hearts and lives. Linda found a perfect shell, Cora got confirmation, Noah's fever broke, Margaret was able to come, Ruth heard a song....goes on and on! AMEN!

Oh I'm so glad it was such an uplifting time! Praise God for His mercies new every day!
Such beautiful pictures Karen! I was never up early enough to get a good sunrise shot. It was truly uplifting and lots of fun. You girls did an excellent job of organization. Nothing was missed and everything ran so smoothly. Kudos to you all. And Elizabeth...... we missed you!!
I know that you really like the black sand one, but I like the top one the best!
