Women's Ministry

 

 A PLACE JUST FOR YOU


***********************************************************************
     The women of this congregation sincerely strive to love God and grow closer to each other.  The works listed here help accomplish both.  Although there are other ministries women participate in, these are the ones that are presently being done primarily by women.

     By their very nature, ministries come and go, change and evolve; All women of the congregation are encouraged to find a work where she can contribute her time and show her concern.  If you're aware of an area of need that isn't being met, get with some concerned people and explore the possibility of meeting that need.
