Women

WELCOME TO CONNECT 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

Take place every 2-3 months, mostly on a Saturday morning or late afternoon.  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.  Contact persons:  Caroline Lyons / Mandy Cohen

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. Contact PASTOR SHELLEY SMUTS for names and venues if you would like to join a Life Group.
