Shades Mountain Baptist Church to hold Breathe women’s event Aug. 18
In a move designed to uplift, inspire and connect women in the community, Shades Mountain Baptist Church is holding a women’s event called Breathe on Sunday, August 18. The evening is intended to serve as a refreshing respite for women of all ages, offering them a chance to pause, recharge and share their stories over decedent desserts and engrossing conversation.
The Essence of Breathe
Starting at 5 p.m., the event will be held at the church’s worship center located at 2017 Columbiana Road. The Breathe event aims to create a safe space for women to unwind, inspire, and be inspired. The organisers seek to bring together women of various backgrounds and demographics, fostering a sense of community and commonality.
An Evening of Indulgence and Inspiration
The evening kicks off with Taryn Clark, a local woman with a captivating tale of hope, resilience, and perseverance against the odds. As she unveils her life’s journey, it is expected that her story will stimulate guests, encouraging them to share their own experiences, fostering a sense of camaraderie and collective understanding amongst participants.
Encouraging Women to Breathe, Share, and Connect
The essence of the Breathe event lies within its very name – encouraging women to take a break, to inhale deeply, and exhale any worries, fears, or stress that they carry. It encourages letting go and breathing in new possibilities and strength to face whatever life throws their way.
Additionally, Breathe is not limited to spiritual upliftment; it encompasses emotional and social dimensions too. As women engage in conversations throughout the evening, connections are forged and relationships strengthened, fostering a sense of community and mutual support among attendees.
No registration is required. Women hesitant about attending any events due to pandemic-inspired apprehensions can find comfort in the fact that Shades Mountain Baptist Church is practicing recommended health protocols to ensure a safe environment for all participants.
Conclusion
The Breathe women’s event is a brilliant opportunity to delve into the collective wisdom, understanding, and unity of women in the community. Its unrestrained atmosphere offers a cathartic outlet for sharing, learning, and growing together while providing a serene backdrop for emotional and spiritual refreshment.
