The Women’s Ministries Prayer Breakfast was sponsored by Blue Angel Parkway Church on October 19, 2025, with the theme, “Journey of Faith,” in Pensacola, Fla. The venue, Live Oak Plantation, nestled in a country setting with majestic oak trees, and a beautiful banquet room served as the perfect location for the kick-off of the women’s ministries program.
Church members and visitors were greeted by Juana Hughes, women’s ministries leader. As an ice breaker, Tammy Cranson, co-leader, gave the participants a card to write down titles for the chapters of their lives — the first chapter being the previous chapter already lived, the second chapter being the chapter they are currently living, and the third chapter being the one yet to experience. They were asked to choose titles that reflect their experiences and spiritual journey. As many of the women shared, it provided an understanding of their various backgrounds and different life stages.
Several men from the church prepared and delivered meals for the breakfast, and some of the women brought muffins, breakfast casseroles, fruit, and drink. After everyone was seated, Cranston led a devotional about Esther’s journey from orphanhood to becoming the queen of Persia. Participants were reminded that Esther was crafted and shaped to fulfill His purpose in her generation. “Esther was placed in a unique situation by God, and so are we. Though our journeys are different and not always easy, God promises to be with us, and He equips us for every challenge we face,” said Cranston. The audience was challenged to reflect on their “for such a time as this” calling and to pray for discernment in God’s leading to answer, “What is God wanting to convey to the world through you?”
With 30 people in attendance, the group split into thirds for intimate praise and prayer time. After a group photo, the women were free to fellowship and enjoy the beautiful grounds. The “Journey of Faith” theme will continue throughout the year as the women meet for Women’s Book Club and other events to encourage each other in their spiritual journeys as they look beyond what they can see to what God has promised.
