Kim Newlen
When Kim Newlen began Sweet Monday in her home 18 years ago, she had no idea that God would take this tiny sweet seed and plant Sweet Monday outreaches around the world. According to Kim, their stated mission of “reaching out to women one sweet invitation at a time for Christ” is God’s Great Commission right here in our own backyard and beyond!
Just last month after Sweet Monday in her home, Kim heard from a Sweet Hostess in England about two Sweet Monday outreaches meeting in small villages there. Through donations and ticket sales, the Sweet Monday organization can continue planting Sweet Monday outreaches around the world and provide support as the ministry grows.
And Sweet Monday is now in 48 states!
The Garden Party is an opportunity to enjoy the incredible gardens of the Sharp family while raising money for an important cause.
