"Let Your Light Shine" was the theme chosen by the Sacred Heart Altar Society ladies for their 2018 "Ladies Day Out". It was held on Sunday, October 28, in the Parish Hall in Park, KS. All women from the Gove County Catholic Parishes were invited. Those attending enjoyed a soup and salad luncheon and then listened to two great guest speakers: Catherine DiNuzzo, is a wonderful professional speaker and counselor from Beloit, who told us how important it is for us to be the shining light for each other in a world that tells us "we're not enough," and to always remember that God created us even before we were born. Kristin Johnson, from Hoxie, brought her beautiful crosses and many other items that she creates out of gourds. She prints scripture on even the smallest of bookmarks, jewelry, baskets, ornaments etc... She compared the ugliness of how a gourd can get to the ugliness of sin in each of us and then how both can be "cleaned up" and made into something beautiful. The time together ended with prizes and a "pumpkin prayer" that reminded us of how God's light shines through each of us and that we need to share that with others.
