Women's Ministries
The purpose of women's ministries is biblical fellowship centered on issues concerning women so that they may "stimulate one another to love and good deeds" (Hebrews 10:24) and be equipped for life, ministry and mission.

Woman to Woman Mentoring
Woman to Woman Mentoring is an intentional, spiritual network of women post-high school and older. Pairs of women commit to a designated timeframe to be a lifestyle testimony for the glory of God. This is not another program, or another "night of the week," but a life process in which women encourage one another in their faith and life experiences as listeners, encouragers and role models. For more information, write to Donna Nilson , or phone 533-4848.
