September 12, 2026, — Bayou City Zone Fall Rally Hosted by Memorial’s Lutheran Women in Mission
Bayou City Zone Spring Rally
Pilgrim Lutheran Church Women of Worth hosted our Spring Rally on March 21, 2026. We had 33 people in attendance. Our guest speaker, Jehoshibah Kurapati, spoke on how she began her Basket of Hope India Mission. Her faith in God gave her comfort and hope during her cancer diagnoses, treatment, and ultimate recovery. She thought of all the suffering children in her native India and wanted to bring this same comfort to them by sharing her hope and faith in God. During her visits to India, she brings Baskets of Hope filled with blankets, books and toys to children suffering through cancer. Through her ministry she has been able to help start six nondenominational churches. A portion of our offering collected during the rally was designated to her Basket of Hope India Mission. Our rally also included two servant events. Attendees brought non-perishable food items for donation to the Houston Food Bank. We also assembled cross necklaces for donation to “Forged by Fire” Ministry. Forged By Fire prepares meals and serves food in disaster areas and the necklaces are given to the people they serve.
Joy Pottery
Lady Fishers hosted Rachel Norris of Joy Pottery on Thursday, April 23rd. She shared her testimony of God’s faithfulness in her life through the process of pottery making. God as the potter, is the creator of each vessel, making each one unique for His purposes. From this hard, muddy, lump of clay, he molds and shapes us into His beautiful masterpiece. When we go astray or get “off center” on the wheel, his hand reshapes, redirects, and guides us back to him. As we humbly surrender all to Him, we see the results of his workmanship, cracks and all!
“Yet you, Lord, are our Father. We are the clay; you are the potter; we are all the work of your hand” Isaiah 64:8
Advent by Candlelight 2025
Advent by Candlelight is an annual event and mission project hosted by members of Lady Fishers. The theme was “One Extraordinary Night” with special guest speaker Donna Snow. The twenty-three beautifully decorated tables and the delicious desserts were provided by the table hostesses. Our goal is to begin Advent in preparation for the ONE God sent as the Savior of the world. It all began on the “One Extraordinary Night” when the humble shepherds witnessed the glory of God shining down on them and a multitude of the heavenly hosts announced the birth of Jesus. (Luke 2: 8-14) Funds were raised to benefit LWML Mission Grants and East Ft. Bend Human Needs Ministry. We are blessed to serve the Lord with gladness as we support both global and local ministries.
