On Friday, May 21, we held a Ladies Conference in the Baptist Church in Bozovici, Romania. We had 20 ladies to attend. Our Bible Study was on the Book of Ruth. We talked about how Ruth was used of God even though, she had many things against her from the beginning. Some of which were she was a woman, she was from a country who was an enemy with Israel, and she was a widow with had no means of support. She was very devoted to her mother-in-law, Naomi. As Ruth 1:16-17 tells us, she was willing to give up her life in her home country and follow Naomi wherever she went and make her God her own. God blessed and took care of Ruth because her faithfulness and unselfishness and used her in the lineage of Jesus Christ through being the grandmother of King David. 
After the Bible Study the ladies made greeting cards. They enjoyed this activity and were very creative in their ideas of design. In the pictures below you can see some of them.
We served refreshments and they always like to try something new and different. One of the highlights of our fun time in the conference was when we drew for door prizes at the end. I think this was something new for them. The prizes were just small boxes of American chocolates but you would have thought it was an expensive gift. They enjoyed it tremendously. It was a blessing for me to be with these ladies and I pray they were blessed as well.
