Lorilee Craker is the proud wife of sweet, country, guitar-slinging Doyle and the proud mom of three rabble-rousing kids. She has written ten books. Two baby name books (A is for Adam and A is for Atticus), four parenting books (When the Belly Button Pops, the Baby's Done, O For a Thousand Miles to Sleep, See How They Run, and Loving Life with Your Preschooler (used to be Wide Eyed Wonder Years), one
mom's devo, Just Give Me a Little Piece of Quiet, two marriage books (We Should Do This More Often, and Date Night in a Minivan), and one collaboration, Through the Storm: A Real Story of fame and Family in a Tabloid World with the lovely and amazing Lynne Spears.

She speaks quite a bit at MOPS groups and other
mom-type events, which she loves, and she moonlights as an entertainment reporter for The Grand Rapids Press, where she gets to go hear the rock bands of her youth for "work." Her favorite recent interviews: Wynonna Judd, Deborah Norville, Vivian Campbell from Def Leppard, Henry Winkler (who kissed her twice and made her almost fall over....the Fonz!), and always, JY from Styx.
The loves of her life, besides God and her family, include the country of Canada, the cities of Winnipeg and Chicago (okay, and Grand Rapids, too!), her Grandma's farm in McTavish, Manitoba, Anne of Green Gables, Jane Austen, chocolate, girlfriends, and the late, great Winnipeg Jets (Save our Jets!).

7-9 PM

I'll be speaking on, "Why does life have to change?"

There is no cost, but coffee and goodies are available to purchase.

I'm so excited to get together again!
I also want to anounce something new:

Girlfriend's Community Table!

This table will be set up at every Praise and Coffee Night for you to announce any events or information that might be of interest to the ladies attending.

What are you up to?? Do you have a church event, Bible study, do you own your own business ...etc.... that you would like to tell us about? Bring info, brochures, business cards, or flyers to set out on the table.

(If you want to put something on the table, I just require that you be at the Praise and Coffee Night, I will not be able to set up for you or bring it every P & C Night, and I would like someone there to represent each announcement or business.)

We Had Such a Blast!

Well, the first Praise and Coffee Girlfriend's Weekend has come and gone and it was so much fun!

One thing that was not needed- icebreakers...
From the time women started arriving there was a dull (and sometimes not so dull) roar coming from the conference room.

We laughed, we cried...we worshipped.

And I cannot thank God the I was able to spend this weekend

with amazing women from over 46 churches!!

This is the TEAM that made this all come together and go so smoothly.

If you would like copies of any of these, email me and I'll send you an invite to my Snapfish acct. where you can order any that you like.

Our next event is a Praise and Coffee Night at the Plainwell Coffee Mill.

”Some people are a joy to love, some are difficult to love, and we all have to deal with some people who are humanly impossible to love. And in every relationship one truth endures: We will never be able to love others well until we have been loved well. Only God can ultimately give us the complete love we so desperately need.”

This is a women only event. There is no childcare available.
