We also have a number of special women's events throughout the year---watch The Weekly for details on events like Buds, Blooms & Botanica, Traditions Tea, and others!
Bible Study Opportunities
Women's Summer Study
Tuesday mornings, June 4, 11, 18, 25 & July 2, 9:30-11:00 am
Contact: Jane Schaible
Join us this summer as women gather to read and discuss Keri Folmar’s book, The Good Portion – Scripture: Delighting in the Doctrine of Scripture. This series attempts to fuel our enjoyment of God through a greater knowledge of him so that it bears fruit in our life. In this book, Folmar guides readers through the nature of Scripture as God’s revelation and explains the characteristics of the Bible, encouraging us to treasure God’s words that are “sweeter than honey.” We will meet Tuesday mornings for large group discussion and prayer. If this time doesn't work for you, let's find another time to connect with women around the Word! Cost is $10 for the book, and childcare for Tuesday morning is available with registration by Monday, May 27.

Contact: Evanelle Olinger
