Our Women's Ministries encompasses a lot of territory. From a weekly Bible class to preparing communion to manning the kitchen during potlucks, our women are always busy.
Our weekly Ladies' Bible Class meets on Tuesdays from 9:30-11 in the Fellowship Center. On the first Tuesday of each month, they remain for a salad luncheon and fellowship. Taught most of the time by Mickey Bates, this class is open for all of our ladies of any age. In addition to Bible study, they also pray for needs in the congregation and often send cards, make calls and encourage the body.
In addition, our Women's Ministries hosts bridal and baby showers, prepare food when needed, send cards to visitors and shut-ins, and generally be the "moms" at church as they are at home.
Sometimes they get to be waited on. Once a month there's a Ladies Night Out scheduled at a local restaurant.
Then there's the Ladies Retreat about every 18 months held at a hotel location somewhere around Southern California. It's a weekend event that often features a guest speaker. Teens may attend with their mothers, and occasionally there's a newborn present. Mostly, though, it's a ladies-only event offering opportunities for both companionship and solitude, get-togethers and reading, good food, and most of all, teaching and fellowship with other women around the Word of God.
