Our goals are:
• To provide opportunities for women to nurture a personal, growing relationship with God through the Word, worship, fellowship and prayer
• To to motivate our women to help, encourage and disciple other women to live and love in a way that glorifies God.
• To reach out in practical ways to those around them as an expression of God's love
Measuring Success:
• If we hear a wife say, "my husband is the most Christ-like person I know"
• If we hear a wife or child say "my husband (dad) has really changed for good"
• If we see men taking on increased leadership roles in our church
• If we see men growing in godliness.
• We will acknowledge that the Lord is blessing our endeavour.

Ministry of Women Update
Theme text for the year will be Romans 12:9-13
"Let love be genuine. Abhor what is evil; hold fast to what is good. Love one another with brotherly affection. Outdo one another in showing honor. Do not be slothful in zeal, be fervent in spirit, serve the Lord. Rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer. Contribute to the needs of the saints and seek to show hospitality." (Romans 12:9-13, ESV)
All four events of the year will be based on this passage
