Friendship Gatherings

Large group events that take place 2-4 times per year.  These provide wonderful opportunities for women to gather and fellowship with other Christian women.

Friendship Circles

Small, interest-based groups which are ongoing in nature. These groups connect women with others who have similar interests.  They open the door to new friendships.  A contact person leads each group.  She will keep women informed of meetings through announcements in the church bulletin, as well as written information in the Women’s Ministry binder found at the Welcome Center in the church narthex. The binder has information on each group with a divider/label for each group so that you can locate information easily.
