Customer Reviews

The Apples of Gold program is awesome. We have been conducting the program at Mayfield Road Baptist Church in Arlington, Texas for several years (since Fall of 2008) with two sessions per year. Some sessions have been with two students only and others have had as many as 6 students enrolled. We have had two women make professions of faith, and many of the women have adapted the study to their own lives. Our group has six mentors, each facilitating a separate lesson. We have reunions twice a year and invite all who have been enrolled to attend. The program has been very successful in our church. Don't be afraid to start the program in your church.

Wonderful!

This is a wonderful program. I honestly can't say enough good about it. What a way to reach out to the women in your church, or in your neighborhood! I went through the program last summer and had the opportunity this week to serve at a new AOG session. It has been such a blessing to me, especially at a time where not many take the time out of their busy schedule to nuture friendships. I have never felt so truly cared for. The meals we did were not the ones in the book, but we did do meals. Some groups have chosen to leave this part out. I would definitely not do this. There is something so great about having a meal together and also not lifting a finger! You feel so pampered! Can't wait until the author pens a continuation study!

Multi-generational impact

This is a wonderful idea for strengthening relationships with older and younger generations. We are going to try it in our church. We may alter the program a bit as it is quite ambitious, but I think we can make it work. Be willing to work with it and don't get bogged down in the details of making it look just like the model.

Get enough books to start your own group

If you can find some mentors to lead you and friends through this study do it, but don't be afraid to start your own group. This is great for a neighborhood study. JE

Inspiring
