It’s not too late for Women of Joy to get a Secret Sister for 2024.
Each year at the WOJ Christmas party, Women of Joy may submit a card who wish to partake in the secret sister activity. Participants receive another gal’s name and throughout the year leave small gifts or cards, and most importantly, pray for their secret sister. All women of Joy are invited to participate in the fun.
If you were unable to make it to the Christmas party, but you still want to take part in the fun, simply complete a card (found on the WOJ table next to the kitchen window in the fellowship hall) by January 15th and we’ll make sure to submit your card and draw one for you or you can print a copy of the form using the link below. Forms may also be left in the office. Names will be drawn and you will receive your Secret Sister name before the end of January.
