Bible Study opportunities –
The Ladies' Sunday Bible Class is meeting in room 205 beginning Jan. 15, 2012. This semester we’re using a study by Lysa TerKeurst’s series Becoming More Than a Good Bible Study Girl. Click here for more information and the class schedule. Various class members will facilitate this series using both DVD sessions and interactive workbook study. The study guide is available in class.
The Tuesday Morning Bible Study meets at 10:00 am. Join us as we discover the parallels of the Tabernacle’s building and your life as a chosen vessel of God. Taken primarily from the Book of Exodus, A Woman’s Heart: God’s Dwelling Place by Beth Moore will take you on a fascinating journey into why God would chose to live in a wilderness tabernacle, made by human hands. This study is a combination of video and workbook activity. The study guide is available in class. Child care is provided. Click here for more information.
, we're also studying Exodus through Beth Moore's study titled Book Of Exodus, a Woman's Heart: Gods' Dwelling Place. The Bible study time begins at 7 pm. Click here for the class schedule and for more information.Wednesday evenings
Prayer and Bagels – We usually hold our Women’s Prayer and Bagel session on the 3rd Saturday of each month from 8:30 to 9:30 am. Approximately once per quarter we’ll have a potluck brunch instead of the bagels, with plenty of time for prayers. Our next Prayer and Bagels will be on Feb. 18th at 8:30 am.
Ladies' Retreat –
Make plans now to attend our women’s retreat, “In the Company of Sisters”, on Friday evening, April 20th and Saturday, April 21st at the church. Join us, as we worship, praise and study together; edify, lift up and inspire one another; and grow to greater LOVE and friendship. We will share our individual and collective stories and the biblical stories of several, such as Mary and Elizabeth, David and Jonathan, Ruth and Naomi.All ladies, from teenagers on up, are invited to attend. Please invite your female friends and neighbors to come with you. Child care will be available. Watch this page for more information (click here). Registration will open later in February but please SAVE THE DATE and put it on your calendar now.
There are plenty of opportunities to help with various aspects of the retreats, including program development, speaker selections, publicity, registration, decorations, food, table hostesses, praise team, set up, and clean up. If you are interested in helping in any of these areas, please contact:

Scripture Parachutes Service Project – We recently completed and shipped another 30 mini parachutes that will be used to deliver Scripture to Columbia.
Please pray for those who will find these parachutes and that the Gospel message will be well received by the people in Columbia. We'll make more parachutes in June 2012.
Shower Teams - We have several rotating teams that plan and host wedding and baby showers for members of the congregation. Please contact Lisa Bosley or go to volunteer opportunities if you wish to lead or join a shower team.
We want all women to find their place in the Women’s Ministry. Please check our bulletin board across from the nursery and this page for the latest information. If you have questions, suggestions, or wish to volunteer, please e-mail us or contact Karen Phillips or Deanna Dellinger.
