Women'S MINISTRY

Life is better with a community...

Heart Sisters
This impactful intergenerational ministry of hospitality brings together women who have raised adult children with younger women (married or single). Comprised of five mentors and eight mentees, each group meets once a month for the academic school year. Mentors rotate hosting, preparing a meal, and offering a craft or activity. Sometimes members enjoy cooking together and sharing recipes. Meetings are concluded with a group devotional or video series and a time of prayer. Any women interested in joining Heart Sisters are invited to sign up in September.

Bible Journaling
Bible journaling is all about reading and studying the word, letting it lead us to be more creative in the way we record scripture.  It helps us connect to the word of God and focus on our relationship with Him.

Supplies:
A Bible labeled specifically for journaling.
Good set of colored pencils.
#2 pencil.
Good art eraser.
Battery powered pencil sharpener.
Black ink pen (Pilot 0.7 works well).
Washi tape (avoid the thinnest roll).
Tablet, iPad or phone (for ideas).

We gather every other Thursday.  Reach out for current schedule if you are interested.

Card Making
This ministry gathers monthly in someone's home to fellowship, design cards, and have a light lunch together. Responsibility for the design and materials rotates among the ministry participants. Typically 2-3 cards are made at each gathering.

Dorcas Ministry (Sewing)
In support of Healing Hands International, this group sews backpacks, girl's dresses and boy's shorts that are placed in Magi Boxes sent across the world to help meet needs of children living in poverty.  

We meet the first Monday of the month from 10am-12pm and always have room for more seamstresses.  
We take donations of gently used adult t shirts, fabric for girl's dresses and heavy fabric for backpacks.

Annual Events

LADIES' DAY
August 24 | 2024
LEARN MORE
This annual meeting in late August offers members and visitors a day away from life’s responsibilities to focus on praise, prayer, and scripture. Small group discussions relate the messages of special speakers to real-life applications. This day of fun, food (lunch is included), mixers, and conversation promotes lasting social connections and increases our sense of community at the beginning of the academic school year.
