Welcome to the Well

As part of my life’s routine, I begin my day with a view from the balcony. Recently I found myself gazing out into what appeared to be a sea of fog. It was a chilly December morning and as it so happens on occasion, what had been hovering over the Pacific Ocean’s coast during the night, I resolved, had slowly crept its way into the valley below.   My head rested on the cool windowpane when suddenly I began [...read more]

This is Mary Hill I have been studying Acts chapter 10 of the story of Peter bringing the Gospel message to a Gentile man named Cornelius.  Oh, the miraculous behind-the-scenes preparation for that encounter to take place is almost unbelievable!  How in the world could such an exchange take place? The hurdles seemed unsurmountable. But God.  There is no doubt that every vision, thought, prayer, plan, and step was orchestrated by Him. Somewhere in the undercurrent of my [...read more]

Hello Ladies!  It’s time for another “Roxi chat”!  I’m not sure about where you live, but while walking around my neighborhood in San Diego during the COVID lock-downs, I noticed many social messaging signs appearing in front yards.   I thought it interesting, and sad, that during a time of fear and anxiety people made what was in my minds-eye, divisional messaging their solace rather than God.  So I thought, I’m going to put a sign in my yard [...read more]

Hello Ladies!  It’s Roxi and today I would like to talk with you about “Direction-Correction”.  When I was in High School I was the forward on my girls basketball team.  At one of our home games, I was thrown the basketball by a teammate and I began dribbling down the court, made a lay-up, and was fouled by a girl from the other team.   There was only one problem…I made the 2-point lay-up at the other teams basket!!  [...read more]

Hello Ladies – My name is Roxi and I am the CFO & Treasurer for Women at the Well San Diego would like to talk with you about something that I believe many of us women struggle with and that is; “self-image”.  So I’m here in front of my antique vanity holding this mirror.  How many times do we look in the mirror in the morning; and, if we are older see more wrinkles, more gray hair, sagging [...read more]

Hello! I am Debi Baczynski and I am one of the women at the well. I got married at the age of 35. It was difficult for me to change my name because it identified me with my family, specifically my father. As the years went by, I realized I truly was a “daddy’s girl” and when he moved to heaven, I thought again about my maiden name and how I missed my dad. My “Groat” identity is [...read more]

Hi Friends, These are two of my dearest friends, Charity in the middle, and Danna on the right.  Years ago Danna said, “Do the right thing for the right reasons and leave the results up to God.”  Oh, what a freeing statement that is! So often we want to know the next move and it is not clear to us.  If you’re like me you want a play-by-play from God.  Wouldn’t that be so much easier?  The truth [...read more]

14 Since then we have a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus, the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession. 15 For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who in every respect has been tempted as we are, yet without sin. 16 Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help [...read more]
