Women’s Ministry
The purpose of the CVBC Women’s Ministry is to bring glory to God by providing opportunities for women to grow in their personal relationships with God, to equip them to serve Him with their spiritual gifts, and to encourage fellowship. We do this by offering:
· Bible Studies: Various Times/Days | Year-Round
* Mondays | 9:00am
* Tuesdays | 9:30am (Tuesday Morning Moms) September-May
* Other seasonal studies | varied times/dates
Current Fall Study: Steadfast Love (Ps. 107) Mondays | 6-7:30pm, 9/11-9/23
· Mentoring: Annually
We want to know and learn from other women in our walk with the Lord, and one way to do this is through mentoring. If you are interested in having a mentor or training to become one, email the Women’s Ministry team at the email address below. Next training: early 2024.
· Fall Retreat: October 6-8, 2023. The women’s retreat offers a get-away to worship, learn, study, discuss, pray, make friends and nurture friendships. Registration is happening now through September 20.
· Fellowship Events: The Women’s Ministry Team hosts fun social events throughout the year. The Fall Campfire is a sweet time of fellowship and S’mores around the fire. The Christmas Celebration and Spring Lunch have delicious food and a special speaker. We have had a few Game Events over the past few months, and those are really fun. All of these events offer great opportunities for you to invite and introduce your friends, family and neighbors to CVBC.
JOIN US for the September 21 Campfire! 6-8pm. Bring a beverage and chair!
· Newsletter: Our Women’s Ministry September Newsletter is available. We publish a monthly newsletter to help the women of CVBC get to know one another, and to give us a glimpse into the upcoming events and studies. These are available in the office, via email, or snail mail. To be added to the mailing list, go to cvbc.net/womens-newsletter.
