Barbara Blakey will be the keynote speaker for our November meeting. The title of her talk is Beautiful Oops! Overcoming the Fear of Failure. As the title of a popular children’s book implies, mistakes don’t have to be disastrous. God is faithful to take our “oops” and transform them into something beautiful. We'll take a look at how our fear of failure, of not measuring up, has a paralyzing effect on our lives and discover ways of overcoming that fear to be all God intends us to be.Barbara Tifft Blakey and her husband, Terry, live on five wooded acres outside Olympia, Washington, where they’ve been married for over fifty years. During their homeschooling years, she created Total Language Plus, an award‑winning, literature‑inspired language arts curriculum—used by homeschoolers and private Christian schools for over three decades. Barbara is an active Sunday school and women’s Bible class teacher and speaker. A devoted grandmother of eight and mother of four, she enjoys camping by the ocean, volunteering in the kitchen at Pleasant Valley Christian Camp (near Mt. Rainier), and cheering for the Seattle Sounders. Her published fiction includes Bertie’s War, A Place to Belong, Emma Underground, Christmas Stars, and The Angel of Second Street. She is represented by Tamela Hancock Murray.
Our meeting is from 7:00-9:00 PM at Eastside Church in Bothell. Informal networking time starts at 6:45. We hope to see you there!
