Women

Our desire is to foster connections between all women of the church through fellowship, education and intergenerational relationships. We want to encourage women in the use of their individual gifts to benefit the church body. To fulfill this mission we offer seasonal gatherings as well as monthly and weekly connections, some of which are listed below. The Women’s Ministry Team encourages, supports and plans many of these events including women’s bible studies, dinner gatherings, social events and an annual Women’s Retreat in the Spring. Keep an eye out for these events here.
