***Edited 4/22 in order to announce the Give-Away Winner(s)***
The 1st Day of our 11 Days of Give Aways is now closed.  Because there were so many comments I ended up choosing two winners instead of one. There were 72 qualifying comments (those who commented before midnight PST on 4/21).   The winners are…

# 47- LisaThank you so much for sharing your ideas with us. I believe God is using you to encourage other women in their walk. Your devotions are helpful to me and one that I really enjoyed is the devotional on Beautiful women in Christ. Your devotions are very helpful to me as a First Lady. Thank you so much, may God continue to bless you. 

#51- apple blossomI have used your ornaments devotional in the past. love themes and ideas you share along with the devotionals. thanks.

 I’ll be contacting the winners by email later today with your free downloads.
 (Winners were chosen by random.org) Thanks for participating.  Don’t miss out.  There’s 10 more days of Give Aways left!

 

Hi Everyone,
Today I’m celebrating my 11th Anniversary of my Creative Ladies Ministry website.  I’m planning on doing 11 Days of Give-Aways.  I’m using the blog instead of Facebook this time because it’s easier for me to have your email address if you win because you’ll need to put it in when you make a comment (don’t worry, no one will see your email but me).

First off, I will be giving away one of the newest downloads, “Living the Royal Life”, which is basically a series of Bible study worksheets that revolve around the topic of our Royalty in Christ. They include Scripture passages to read and questions to answer. There are sections on A Royal Priesthood, Supreme Reign, In the Presence of the King, On the Throne, and several others.   Also today’s give-away includes a download of the Daughters of the King Printable Theme Set.

By the way, these downloads correlate with the All the King’s Daughters Theme on the website.

                              

 

 

I will be choosing one winner from today’s comments and announce the winner here tomorrow.

 In order to qualify you must.

1.  Comment on this post.  I would love to hear how you use the website, what themes you’ve used, what’s your favorite section or page of the website, etc.

2.  Make sure you fill out your name (first is okay) and email address when commenting (it won’t be shown publicly)

Please Note:  Comments do not show up automatically.  I’ll need to approve them first.  I get a lot of spam on  my blog daily and a lot of them are not nice so I need to check them first.

Comments need to be posted by 12:00 Midnight today Pacific Standard Time  to qualify for the download give-away.

    Three years i went thru a very ugly divorce. i went from being married to a preacher in full time ministry to being a single mom with 6 kids. The kids have not seen their dad in 2 1/2 years now. your site gave me stability and hope. i have used it many times for my personal benefit. I teach the single moms Sunday School class at my church and have used several of you devotions. thank you for sharing and taking the time to do this site!

  • Delores Smith says:

    Over the past 10 years I have used all of or part of the following themes. Baking up Christmas, birthdays, survival, chocolate and friends, game night, ladybug, hats off, instruments, purses, beach, coffee, aprons, shoes, ornaments, cherries, PMS, pattern for living, pearls of lace, reflections of a lovely lady, cruise, son-flowers, teapots. what not to wear (3 times), when life gives you lemons, festival of tables, seeds, Mexican, ice cream, and western. I have used bits and pieces of many of the other themes. Your themes and devotionals trigger ideas and I can go on to adapt them to my circumstances. Your generously sharing your gifts and talents have encouraged and helped countless women around the world to help and encourage those around them.

    Thank you for sharing your love of God and His word. I am so lucky to have found you and your creativity.

    Mrs. Julia, I can not begin to tell you how much your website has meant to me. I was given the responsibility of being the leader of our ladies meetings, when our pastor’s wife became ill. I found your website threw another prachers wife that is a friend of mine. Anyway, I have used so many of your ideas and devotions for the last few years. When I need some ideas I go to your site and get the juices flowing. Last year I used your ideas for our pastor appreciation Sunday, it was good to honor him and have the prayer bookmark to give our members to remind them to pray for him. In March, I used the one about the prayer garden and used my brother’s illness and how I prayed for him sitting in his garden. You said you would pray for him. That really touched my heart, that you would pray for him not knowing me. He is getting better, slowly but surley. This month I used the devotion about the cup cakes. Had variety of cup cakes made and we used them as our dessert after dinner. I thank you so much for your ministry and what I have learned from you and am able to pass on to my ladies.

    Its Monday and I am getting ready to make cards for our ladies group meeting next week. My first stop is always at your site. Thanks for all your creative ideas that you share with us. May you be blessed this week, as you have blessed us.

  • sandra scott says:

    julia, i have been usuing your devotionals at our ladies meeting for a little over a year now! this one is great! i will probably use it at our May meeting. my favorite flower is the yellow rose! keep up the good work. it relly helps me because i don’t have a lot of time to get topics together sometimes and your devotionals are not too long so that gives us ladies plenty of time for fellowship. god bless you! you are an angel! sandi scott

  • Julia,I love your website–we use it for our Ladies Group/Ladies Day and now for our Teen Girls Day–we are looking to use many things from you Daughters of the King selection–thank you so much for sharing your ideas–these ideas have been used to further the gospel of Jesus Christ==God Bless you and thank you for the chance to win something…

  • Lisa Sackett says:

    You have an amazing gift. Thank you for sharing so many wonderful ideas with us ladies. It really is a blessing to be able to gain inspiration from your fabulous ideas. You are so appreciated.

  • Delores Smith says:

    With your resources and encouragement, I have plans for several of my upcoming women’s ministries meeting. On May 12, I will have my Mother’s day tea using “You’re such a doll” theme. I always use a table to advertise my upcoming meeting and one of the ladies in the church was so excited about the theme she brought her large doll house she has for her granddaughter to put on my table. Different ladies are decorating a table at the meeting with their dolls and teacups. Next year I plan to use “Lessons from a cupcake” for Mothers Day. I would like to have a cupcake bar where they can decorate their own cupcake. You encourage and inspire me and I am able to encourage others.
