Women

We desire to provide opportunities for women to encourage and support one another toward personal, spiritual and relational wholeness.

Opportunities to Connect 

Women's Small Group Bible Study

NEW MONTHLY SATURDAY WOMEN'S BIBLE STUDY
Beginning February 24 | 8:30-10:00am | Adult wing
Ladies, do you desire more connection with other women? Do you wish you could attend the Tuesday morning or evening Bible studies, but your schedule just won't allow it? Here's another option for you! On the fourth Saturday of each month, starting in February at 8:30am we'll gather for coffee and an hour of Bible study. We will study a different woman in the Bible each month and see how their stories speak to us today. No prep is needed, just a notebook and your Bible. Come as you are and enjoy connecting with other women as you study God's Word together.

WOMEN'S MORNING BIBLE STUDY
Tuesdays | 9:30-11:30am | Adult Classroom Wing
God of Freedom: A Study of Exodus 19-40
January 9 - March 19

Come journey with us as we study through the second half of the book of Exodus with teacher/author Jen Wilkin. We'll see how God shepherded His newly-freed children into an understanding of what their freedom means: lives consecrated for service to God and to one another. We'll visit familiar scenes of the giving of the Ten Commandments, the idolatrous worship of a golden calf, and the intricate details of the tabernacle. In every page of the Bible, we'll learn to see Christ through the stories of His people and discover how the God who created you, and made a covenant with you, will deliver you from death to life, for His name and renown.

Cost is $35. Loving childcare provided. Contact Kathy Anderson by email or 971-409-0004, for more information. Register here or in the app.

WOMEN'S EVENING BIBLE STUDY
Tuesdays | 6:30-8:30pm | Clackamas Room
Better: A Study in Hebrews
January 9 - May 14

Study the book of Hebrews verse by verse with us and Jen Wilkin and discover how Christ fulfills and completes the work of angels, prophets, priests, and ceremonial laws, establishing a better covenant. Hebrews calls us to fix our eyes on the resurrected Christ as we run the race set before us. In Him alone we have hope and salvation. In this study we will explore how the entirety of Scripture points to Jesus Christ, discover the hope of the new covenant in Christ, and learn how to study the Bible verse by verse.

Cost is $25. Study goes through May 14. No childcare available. Contact Gina Smith, , for more information.

Annual Women's Christmas Brunch

The 2023 Christmas Brunch was a terrific success, with a larger than anticipated crowd. Check back for details of the 2024 brunch as they become available.

Retreat 

"To Retreat" means to leave our normally occupied positions and GO to a place of safety, quiet and seclusion. By going to a retreat, we physically remove ourselves from life's distractions, the demands of people in order to make space for God. Even Jesus recognized the value and need to get away. (Mark 1:35 "Very early in the morning Jesus got up, left the house and went off to a solitary place where He prayed.") The Women's Ministry Team provides  an occasional "Retreat" where women come to be refreshed, inspired, spend time with God and to each other.

Check back for the 2024 retreat details which will most likely be held in the fall.

Prayer Renewal

Special days of getting away from it all for special attention to prayer and connection to God are scheduled, normally annually. 

Check later for the next scheduled event.
