Women

Our women’s ministry goal is to promote Christian discipleship and spiritual growth through Bible study and fellowship. We seek to be an intergenerational and invitational community where women can find connection, support, and encouragement.

Fridays


Every other Friday we will be diving into the book of 1 Samuel using a video series by Pastor Sharon Hodde Miller. The people described in the Old Testament of the Bible offer complex, flawed examples of leadership. Their stories prompt us to examine the difference between our outward appearance and what God sees in our hearts. Click button here for dates, details, and to sign up. Join us as we dig into God’s word together!
