The purpose of Women’s Ministry is to glorify God. 

We provide avenues for personal spiritual growth and the development of spiritual gifts, expressing our God-given commission through fellowship, Bible study, encouragement, prayer support, care and assistance in time of need, thus equipping and touching the lives of women who in like manner share the love of Christ with families, the community, the nation and the world.

Programs

The Foundry

The Foundry is our one-on-one discipleship program in which women teach other women to follow Jesus. Registration is open for 2023 - 2024. If you are interested in learning more or serving as a mentor, contact Marie Louise Bowers.

Pursuit of Godliness

Each month during the summer, we gather for a meal and to hear one of our women tell her story of God’s faithfulness.  

Discipleship Together

Each semester, our ladies gather for supper, fellowship, worship, and teaching. Our next Discipleship Together will be held on Tuesday, October 24 at 5:30 p.m. Caroline Capper will be our speaker. If you plan to join us for dinner, please register by Thursday, October 17 at 4:00 p.m. There is no cost associated with attending this event.

Small Groups

Get Connected. Go Deeper.

Women’s Small Groups will meet for 8 weeks consecutively from September 20 to November 10, 2023. This fall, groups will be using Courtney Doctor and Melissa Kruger’s Remember Your Joy: A Bible Study of Salvation Stories in the Old Testament. There is no charge for the book.

Groups meet at a variety of times and locations. Small groups are a great way to both grow in your faith and knowledge of the Lord and fellowship with other women of all ages. If you're interested, please contact Marie Louise Bowers for more information.
