FRIENDSHIP WOMEN

 

You are invited to join Friendship Women for Bible study and  fellowship. As you study God’s Word, you will grow in your relationship with God, and experience hope and peace as God revives your heart. You will also make new friends as you spend time together at our Bible studies and luncheons. Our goal is “to know Christ and make Him known.”

Friendship Women Winter 2027 Bible Study

WOMEN'S FALL BIBLE STUDY WEDNESDAYS, Oct 7 to Nov 11, 2026 9:30 AM to 11:45 AM

Join other women this winter for a very special Bible study of encouragement, Esther – Daring Faith For Such A Time As This by Kelly Minter.

In this powerful 7-session study, Kelly Minter will take you into the story and life of Esther – a beautiful queen, her courageous cousin, a foreign land, and a murderous adversary – the book of Esther has all the elements of an epic drama.

The story unfolds at a time when the people of God are split between nations with an uncertain future.

You will discover that God’s hand is at work in every scene and circumstance and that in every place and at all times, our God is faithful.

Oh, what a journey is ahead of us as enter into a daring faith modeled by Esther and her cousin Mordecai – a faith rooted in the goodness of God, lived out through ordinary circumstances, and used to change the world—we will never be the same as a result.

Each Wednesday, we will meet at 9:30 am in Speakers Hall for worship and a video message by Kelly Minter. then we will share in small group discussion in homes and in Lakeview Clubhouse, as we talk about all we have learned from the video teaching and from our quiet times during the week. 

This is such a great opportunity to live in God’s Word and grow deeper in your relationship with Him.
