Growing in God’s Word:

It is a goal of the Women’s Ministries Team to offer opportunities for you to grow in your relationship with God. Reading the Bible Cover2Cover and seeking out Bible studies are a couple of ways to do that. Finding a doctrinally sound book and going through it with a few friends is another way to cultivate your relationship with God and be accountable to other women.
