Women
Welcome to the world of women who follow Jesus. They are confident in God’s love for them, have a strong sense of identity and a unique sense of purpose. They love God extravagantly and long to see others know Him too. Jesus is their Saviour, God is their Father and the Holy Spirit is their enabler. As women of faith, they serve with passion, love with purpose and reflect Jesus.
OUR VISION:
To be women who RADIATE CHRIST in our everyday lives, BRINGING CHANGE to our nation.
OUR MISSION:
To express the nature and character of Christ through
• Authentic friendships
• Intentional mentoring
• Freedom in the Holy Spirit
HOW CAN YOU CONNECT WITH OTHER WOMEN
Refresh events

An invited guest speaker, Spirit-filled worship, fellowship, biblical teaching, prayer, beautiful décor and tasty treats all contribute to make these special occasions not to be missed.

Ladies lifegroups
There are a number of groups to choose from which meet in various homes, once a week, mostly on Wednesday morning, with some groups meeting on a Tuesday and Friday morning. There is one evening group that meets every fortnight on a Wednesday evening. These small groups give wonderful opportunity to study God’s Word together while supporting each other in prayer, and practically, so that we may live our faith and experience the blessing of being a Kingdom community.
