Women’s Ministry

Loving and Serving God through
building a community of women seeking to know God and make Him known.

Women today wear many hats! They are busy with the demands of work, home and family. They desire to make a difference in their world and to do it in a way that is consistent with their own unique gifts and abilities. Our desire within Women’s Ministry is to help provide relationships and opportunities for women to grow as women of God. Our purpose statement is this:

We exist to love and serve God through building a community of women who are seeking to know God and make him known.

We are building this community in many ways and we’d love for you to be a part of this. So come along with us on this exciting journey! Get involved, join a Bible study, attend a Special Event, volunteer to serve God and others. Believe me, you won’t be sorry that you did!

On the journey with you,

Julie Ryan
Women’s Ministry Director
