As commissioned by Christ, Women's Ministries exists to:
- Point women to an intimate relationship with Jesus Christ. John 15:4: "Remain in Me, and I will remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the Vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in Me."
- Equip women to share their faith in Christ within their world of influence. Acts 5:42: "Day after day, in the temple courts and from house to house, they never stopped teaching and proclaiming the good news that Jesus is the Christ."
- Train women to fulfill the biblical role of women. Proverbs 31:10-31, keeping in mind that this is a description not of a woman's day, but her lifetime.
To that end, the women's ministry offers ongoing Bible studies and fellowships, as well as special events and retreats designed to meet the spiritual and life needs of women in our community. Upcoming opportunities are listed below.
