Saturday January 27th was a special day at HBF as Kara Godfrey, wife of Pastor Tony Godfrey of Iola, Kansas shared God's word from her heart with the ladies gathered from all over the metro at HBF's annual Ladies Retreat. The food, fellowship and fun of gathering was remarkable as many commented on how God used Kara to stir their heart. There were over 70 women who attended and a small army of volunteers including the pastors wives of HBF to pull it off.
One of the highlights of the confernce was the singing and special music brought by the women of Harvest Baptist of Iola. The song service was so good that many didn't want them to go back to Iola but continue on Sunday! What a great blessing Harvest Baptist of Iola is to the body of Christ. We are so thankful to fellowship with such a great church family.
Times like these are precious and bring unity and purpose to the body of Christ. It is the prayer of Amy and the Pastor's wives that souls of the women of HBF and our sister churches were refreshed and encouraged in the Lord.

1 Corinthians 16:18 For they have refreshed my spirit and yours: therefore acknowledge ye them that are such.
We want to thank Kara for her time in prayerful preparation for this years retreat. She is certainly being used of God to plow the soil of woman's hearts for God's glory.
