The Women's Fellowship meets twice per month on the first and third Thursdays at 11:00 a.m. in the Gilman House adjacent to the church. This is open
to any women who want to gather together to provide opportunities for small group studies, fellowship, inspiration, and especially outreach to others.
Meetings begin with Biblical studies while enjoying tea or coffee. Recent lessons have focused on Women of the Bible. Studying
Biblical women gives a perspective to our lives today as well as brings to light the knowledge of a different culture, time, and customs. This study lasts approximately one hour.
Following our studies, members enjoy a bag lunch.
After lunch, there can be a service activity before ending the meeting. The most prominent project of the Women's Fellowship has been the sponsorship of the Care Package initiative for
our US Soldiers in the Middle East. Donations are made to our church and the WF members organize, pack, and prepare boxes for shipment. This project will continue as long as there is a war.
Our group also helps Sharing Inc. on a regular basis. Doll outfits were made by other women of
our church and then passed on to our attention. In years past we have produced almost 200 dolls annually for distribution to disadvantaged children in the South for Christmas. If anyone
would like to help sew or knit doll dresses, email here for information. Supplies are furnished. To see some of this talent, click here.
There are other projects as well as special event speakers. And there are several social events during the year such as cookouts and restaurant dining.
