Women of the Church

 

Existing Programs of the Church for Women

Women on Mission
The organization that supports missions activities has two general meetings monthly, on the first Tuesday in the morning and in the evening. These meetings occur at the church with programs that are mission-related. In addition, circles or small groups also meet in members’ homes and at the church monthly. These groups provide a nurturing and supportive environment for fellowship and in which to do missions projects.

Bible Study
A small group that meets weekly for an hour to consider and discuss scripture. The members started with Genesis 1 and are now studying books of the New Testament. They meet Wednesday mornings at 11:00 in the church lounge.

Craft Class
This group meets Friday mornings at 9:30 in the church lounge to make items to sell for Country Carnival (held in the latter part of October). Classes are offered in a variety of crafts, including quilting, basket making, and other activities that interest members. Fellowship and the nurturing of friendships are an important aspect of Craft Class.

Book Study Groups
Groups choose a devotional book to read and discuss over a number of weeks, generally ten or less. These groups meet at various times convenient to group members.

Book Club
This group meets on the fourth Tuesday of the month in the church library to discuss a chosen book, usually fiction.

Comfort Casseroles
Women are solicited to make and bring casseroles to the casserole room, where they are kept in the freezer to be taken to members who are experiencing emergencies, death in the family, or other difficulties when providing a meal is helpful.

Care Committee
This group provides support to members who have lost close relatives to death. If the funeral is held at the church, this group will provide a meal for the family after the service at the church.

Uptown Ladies
This support group is for widows and other women. They meet at the church on the third Thursday of the month and go to lunch or visit near-by places of interest for fun and fellowship.

Birthday Club
Birthday greetings are sent to every adult church member.
