Women of Bethany

Ladies, join us as we connect together!! 

As the Women of Bethany, our goal is to connect in authentic relationships so that we can encourage and challenge each other to glorify God and see our lives, and the lives of others, transformed into Jesus followers. We will do that through big events and small gatherings where women can connect and share their lives together. Save the dates for these.

Women's Gatherings 2025

Trust in the Lord with all your heart And do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He will make your paths straight. Proverbs 3:5-6

It is such an easy verse to memorize. But in reality, it's not as easy to live it out. Join us on the third Wednesday of each month at 7 PM as we study through this passage and learn to put each line into practice in our daily lives. These monthly studies will include teaching, table conversation, prayer and encouragement.  Come a few minutes early for snacks and mingling! We will be studying through the book Relaxed by Megan Fate-Marshman. While each study will be self-contained, you can choose to get the book or study guide to dig deeper at home. Click here for all of the dates & more info. 

Women's Retreat 2025

Day by day continuing with one mind in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, they were taking their meals together with gladness and sincerity of heart, praising God and having favor with all the people. And the Lord was adding to their number day by day those who were being saved."
Acts 2:46-47
