WOMEN'S MINISTRY 

Why do we call ourselves "Sisters of SOUL?" It's because we are women of the Word
connecting through Service and Outreach, building Unity through the Love of Christ.

Fun & Fellowship

We plan and host a wide-range of events that allow women to creatively build relationships with one another. We do all kinds of engaging things together with the intent of developing friendships and reaching our community. 

Exploring the Bible

Some activities focus on helping women grow in their relationship with God by working through Bible studies together. Gaining more understanding about Jesus helps us to serve others.
Women helping women ... that's what we're about.
Our Heart-to-Heart mentorship program connects women in deeper supportive and encouraging relationships.

More about Heart-to-Heart

Heart-to-Heart is a mentoring program that helps older and younger women develop important, supportive friendships.

Who is it for?

  • All adult women in our church.
  • Older women (that is, in terms of life experience and walk with the Lord, not necessarily chronological age). God calls for older women to open their lives and hearts to the next generation. Share goals, dreams, and your own personal spiritual journeys.
  • Younger women seeking a role model who can give them hope and confidence that life’s journey can be lived victoriously, or who need someone near when family lives far away.
  • An opportunity for younger women to tap into the reservoir of experience, empathy, maturity, and spirituality that older women can often provide.

What are the guidelines?

  • Make a one-year commitment to the relationship.
  • Contact each other once a week and meet at least once a month.
  • Pray for each other regularly.
  • Do things together like a study the Bible, shop, learn a new skill, go to lunch, etc.
  • Partners are free to do what they want as long as they work on developing a Christ-centered relationship.
