A tailor-made piece of our Women's Ministry wardrobe is our G!rlfriend Groups referred to as G! GROUPS. They are small interest groups that women may join at any time. They provide a place for women to begin friendships, share life experiences and connect with other women inside and outside the church walls. Each G! GROUP has a leader that we refer to as a FUNCILITATOR. Take a look at our list of G! GROUPS and get connected. Whether you're into scrap-booking, crafts, missions or bull-riding, we may have just the G! GROUP for you!
Can't find a G! GROUP that interests you? Are you the outdoors gal that might enjoy a hike or a bike? What about movies and dinner? You would love a group of chick flicks or dining divas. If you like to read, you would enjoy a Latte' and Lit group who book club over a cup of java. The possibilities are endless.
Click here to fill out an interest survey. Tell us what you're interested in. Maybe you would like to funcilitate a new group. The GAB TEAM will get back with you soon to discuss the possibilities!
