The Women on Mission group from Lakewood Baptist Church had a baby shower last week for the Woman's Choice Resource Center in Louisville. The ladies donated items that were shared on a needs list. The event also included refreshments and Bible study. Vicky Woodcock of the Worship and Music Department and a Lakewood member, took this photo. There are two other KBC staffers, also Lakewood members, are also visible in this picture. Can you see them?

Are you involved in a church mission project? If so, share details and a picture to Denise Withers for a future B-Lines posting. ]]> http://kybaptist.org/kbc/blogs/BLOG-Emp.nsf/dxcomments/02182011034851PMDWISEL.htm http://kybaptist.org/kbc/blogs/BLOG-Emp.nsf/dx/02182011034851PMDWISEL.htm?opendocument&comments Congrats, JoAnn!
