An amazing Day

Last Monday was Labour Day here in Victoria, so we had a lovely long weekend. Then my week became very busy, I had to reorganise my days so as to be able to go to Bendigo on Thursday. It was a special day celebrating the 50th anniversary of CWCI (Christian Women Communicating International), they are the organisation who first set up the KYB study groups. I was amazed to hear that this began here in Australia and has now spread to many other countries!! But I'm jumping ahead of myself, firstly I had to get up at 5.30am to be on the bus at 7.15, we arrived in Bendigo at the huge Baptist Church complex about 9.40, we were served a delicious morning tea, then it was into the day's proceedings. We had a wonderful day of singing, a guest speaker from USA who spoke on "Living in Jesus' abiding presence", and a Christian bookstall (always very popular).More delicious food was served for lunch and afternoon tea, then it was back on the bus and home about 5.40pm. We were tired but exhilarated, next morning it was walking at 6.30 as usual, then off to KYB at 9.15, it was great to be able to share all of this experience with the ladies who couldn't make the trip!
