"Now we are the body of Christ, and each one of you is a part of it."
1 Corinthians 12:27
Our Purpose:
- To develop women who are God fearing, pursuing an intimate relationship with God and who desire to be enthusiastic disciples of Jesus Christ.
- To encourage and support each other in spiritual growth and applying Biblical truths in daily living.
- To provide opportunities for friendships to develop, fellowship to take place and unity to grow.
- To offer hurting women resources to help in their journey to wholeness.
- To reach out in practical ways to women in our community.
- To complement the existing ministries and support the vision of the church.
