Dear Precious Ladies,

Welcome and thank you for taking the time to check out Women's Ministries. It is an honor to serve the women of Bethel Church. Just having the privledge to love you, pray for you and grow with you is so rewarding. I'm excited for our future together as we move forward into all that God has planned for us, reaching out to our community to serve the women hurting and in need. What amazing opportunities are before us to impact our community for Christ.

Living to serve Him,

Pursuing "HIS" Purpose
Are you interested in pursuing the Lord's plan for your life, discovering all that He has planned for you? This Bible study is held each Wednesday night in Keys Chapel beginning at 6:45 to 8:30pm. It is a wonderful time to connect with other ladies through fellowship and personal prayer time, worshiping in song and learning from God's Word. Childcare is provided.

He had to forfiet the most tempting earthy prospects and face possible danger so that he would not be of Babylon although he was in it. Although he was under them politically, morally and spiritually he would put Babylon under his feet. Let it be said of us each day that we to live to serve God, no matter where we are!
