Women at the Well, Tuesdays at 10am
Hey ladies
We are looking to start a weekly get-together… gathering in friendship, fellowship, and faith.
Please join us each Tuesday in our Bear Creek sanctuary for an informal circle-time from 10-11am.
Our hopes for this group is to be able to share some light topics, back it up with scripture, add some humor, share in conversation, and support one another as we grow together and grow in God’s spirit as women of faith. By keeping our time to just one hour each week, our hope is that you find this hour to be a great "jump start" to your Tuesday…. And then be on your way to other tasks that await your day.
Please join us. In Joy, Connie Gagnon and Sonya Garrett
