What is Titus  2 for Life:  Titus 2 for Life is a model ministry that encourages daughters of God to step away from the world and hear their Father’s Word about womanhood.  Titus 2 for Life exposes the half-truths and deceptions of worldly ideas.  It contrasts those “trendy” ideas with the unchanging truth of God’s Word.  Using Law and Gospel, Titus 2 for Life encourages men and women to live in the present age eager to glorify God and mentor generations of hope. 

Why Two Sessions:  The women’s retreat in the afternoon is for single or married women ages 18 and older.  Those participating will be encouraged in their roles as women, friends, daughters, wives, mothers, homemakers, and grandmothers.  These are vocations that glorify God.  When we trust our identity as daughters of God, we affect the lives of others.  Following the model in Titus 2, “older” women mentor “younger.”  All women will benefit from this session. 

The session entitled “It’s a Girl Thing” will be hosted by the women that attended the first session.  The girls/young ladies that have been attending “The Bluffs Retreat” – sponsored by Higher Things and St. Paul’s Lutheran Church at St. Paul’s Early Childhood Center earlier in the day will be our guests.  The topics covered during the evening session will be:  Part I:  To Be a Woman and Part II:  Dressing for Life. 

PART I: 

What does the Creator of our lives say about women?

How much are we loved?

How are men and women different?  Is that awesome… or what?

How do we respect ourselves and others?

What influence do we have?

Is there hope even on bad days?

PART II:

Why did God make clothes?

Are Fig Leaves Enough?

Is modesty natural?

Am I caught between two worldviews?

What is the look and behavior of love?

Am I living in the presence of God?

What is the perfect dress and why should I wait to wear it?
