Women's Ministry

"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. ... Learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls." - Jesus

The daily grind can grind the life out of women in today's society. Jesus understands. He offers the kind of enduring rest that will reach in to the very soul of a woman - and make her whole.

The goal of our women's ministry is to establish a group of women who are sharing the love they have received from Jesus by mentoring, loving, and caring for the other women at First Family. Our "love for one another" will be the sign to our community that the First Family is a place where Love lives - and where wounded women can find a place of healing.

Reach the Lost - Teach the Found in 2010

We have BIG PLANS for 2010! We must always remember that Jesus commands us to go reach the world and make disciples. With God's help and working together we will accomplish both in 2010. Here are some of the opportunities to learn God's Word and fellowship with other women:

.: Third Thursdays: Spring Break for Your Soul - Thurs., March 18, from 6:30-8:45 p.m. This month, we are taking a break from our WWU teaching classes and having a time of worship, fellowship, food, and fun. It will be an evening filled with everything a woman needs to restore her spirit and soul. Please sign up even if you haven’t attended any Wise Woman University classes before. Childcare is available, but you must register. Contact Marie for details.

.: Weekday Bible Study - Keep checking here for our start up date for Tuesday morning Bible studies for moms who drop their kids off at our Weekday School.

Wonderful Weekend for Women: March 12-13, 2010

On March 12 & 13, you’ll experience two days designed to challenge you to change your world by impacting your community, church, and family for Christ. Join over 1000 other women who will envision the endless possibilities of giving more, doing more, and living more on purpose for the cause of Christ. Learn more >>
