The Word Cafe

Last Saturday I went to our NW Iowa Women's Conference at our church. The theme was The Word Cafe - so lots of coffee was available! For lunch, we were served our minister's wife's yummy potato or vegetable soup in the big coffee mugs you see in the second picture and then we got to take one home. Along with the soup, we had turkey sandwiches with a special sauce and bacon and a delicious dark apple cake with cinnamon sauce for dessert.

The speaker was Vicki Tiede and worship music was led by Jill Pearson. Our church's puppeteers performed doing sign language for a song. There were lots of nice door prizes. This is the conference we were to have last year at this time but it had to be cancelled after food was prepared due to a snow storm! This year the weather and day was great (still no rain!). We're lucky to have something like this to go to in our area!
