Helping Leagues of Women

Preserve the art and the culture of hard working women
There are many women's groups that aim high to improve the lives of others by raising awareness and providing relief and emotional support. In the USA and in MEXICO we have the Red Cross, but the Red Cross in Mexico is limited as there is no government support. As an example the first Junior_League was founded in 1901 by a daughter of a railroad executive who was inspired by a lecture about the work of social reformers. Today, there are currently 293 Junior Leagues in Canada, the United States, Mexico and the United Kingdom. According to the Association of Junior Leagues International, they exist as an organization of women committed to developing the potential of women and improving communities through the effective action and leadership of trained volunteers. It's purpose is exclusively educational and
The Red Hat Society has grown into an international group of women who have contributed greatly by simply gathering together to have FUN while supporting one another through good times, and bad.  Women of great Value enjoy having FUN as they lift up others by their examples of compassion. At the Autumn Feria, we have the distinct opportunity to fellowship among all females, while wearing the colors and artistry of Mexico.  Let us teach by example, let us come together for the good and worthy purpose of celebrating creativity. Let us intentionally promote the efforts and talents of one another so that we can effectively make a unforgettable splash in our community. There are vendors who are now artfully designing hair ornamentations and necklaces with matching earrings that include an image of Frida.  Let those who are inspired to share their courageous story on this blog also support our local artisans that are on board with the values and the guidelines posted on this blog. There is JOY to be obtained as we voluntarily rejoice in the success of one another!  Let us support one another in lieu of compete with one another. The Feria is held the first weekend of November each year at the Chapala Yacht club. Come and be prepared to shop for cultural treasures. Heavenly Father we praise You and glorify You with the voice and talents the Holy Spirit assigned. 🙌 Your ways are not our ways, and Your plans for Your Church are far superior than what man can imagine our control. We are Your Humble Chosen, and we invite the Holy Spirit to open our ears that we be in tune with every
prompt.

We welcome He who abides in us to do a mighty work, a supernatural change in all those who seek God. Pour out Your wisdom, a fresh anointing, that satisfies our hunger to know You more intimately.  Holy Spirit shake the church to awaken us to see the good You are doing in our midst. Open our eyes to see Your marvelous works. We are His beloved, His peacemakers. Holy Spirit help us forgive ourselves and return to our Father's calling.  Unite us as His righteous army with our eyes focused on Jesus. Thank You Father for all the ministering angels, for the Holy Spirit, for Your mercies, grace and ongoing plans for us. We welcome You Holy Spirit, speak Your truth to us all. AMEN

  1. Congratulations to Matthew C. Hurley, the new U.S. Consul in Guadalajara. Thank you for all the support you provided to my expat-support department at Chapala City Hall and for the aid you provided to my fellow Mexicans. I know you will continue the excellent work of the consulate, and I wish you and your lovely wife all the best in your new role.
