HEARTFELT FRIENDS - Building Meaningful Friendships in the Home
Purpose of the Ministry:
Building relationships, sharing our homes, linking the hearts of women, and passing our faith to the next generation.
Heart Families consist of Heart Moms who are mature Christian women who host in their homes the younger women, known as Heart Sisters. The Heart Moms lead devotionals, provide dinners, and train through lessons and through example. These mentoring relationships will support the younger women as they pass their Christian faith on to their families and on to the next generation.
This ministry is Biblically based on Titus 2:3-5...... “Teach the older women to be reverent in the way that they live...to teach what is good. Then they can train the younger women to love their husbands and children, to be self- controlled and pure, to be busy at home, to be kind, and to be subject to their husbands, so that no one will malign the word of God.”
The program is open to all ladies in the church ages 18-108.
Ladies on the team can be married, single, widowed, divorced, young professionals, with children, without children, someone visiting Graymere and thinking about becoming a member.......any lady interested in fellowshipping with Christian sisters and participating in Bible devotionals.
The Bible devotionals are the same for each group and are provided to the Heart Moms. While not each Heart Mom may choose to host in her home or lead a devotional, each is an important part of helping the Host mom.
Heart families meet once a month for a ‘season’ (Sept.- April) and stay on the same team for that season. During the following season Heart Moms (3-4 ladies) and Heart Sisters (6-8 younger ladies) will change and be on different teams, thus letting all get to know each other better. We hope you will consider being a part of Heartfelt Friends.

What is a Heartfelt Prayer Warrior?
Heartfelt Friends is now in its fourth season at Graymere. One reason our ministry has thrived is because of the continued prayers of Prayer Warriors.
What is a Heartfelt Prayer Warrior? You are asked to commit to prayer for the following:
❤ That God will be glorified in all that we do.
❤ Please pray the Heart Moms will be able to carry out the responsibility of Titus 2:3-5: “Teach the older women to be reverent in the way they live....to teach what is good. Then they can train the younger women to love their husbands and children, to be self-controlled and pure, to be busy at home, to be kind, and to be subject to their husbands, so that no one will malign the word of God.”
❤ Our desire is to see the Heart Sisters continue to grow in their trust of God and in faith that He will guide their paths when their lives are devoted to Him.
❤ In August you will receive names of all of the Heart Sisters, Heart Moms, and Prayer Warriors.
Please specifically pray for each lady by name. If raising children, please pray for their wisdom in guidance of their children. Many are married. Please pray for their husbands and that their marriages can be strong. Satan is out to destroy everything about Christian families. Your prayers are needed. Pray for each other as Prayer Warriors. Each of us needs to be in prayer for our sisters in Christ.
If you know of another lady who would like to be a Prayer Warrior, please see Terri, Joie, or Cherry and we will add her name to our list. The three of us ask for your prayers as we help lead Heartfelt Friends ministries. To God be the glory. 🙏
“Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.” - Philippians 4:6
Thank you for your continued faithfulness.
In love and prayer, 💕 🙏 Terri, Joie, and Cherry
