Calvary Women's Ministries

ATTENTION, ALL WOMEN!!!
 Where can you get a delicious lunch, a morning full of fellowship, exciting door prizes, and an informative, inspiring program designed just for you...........all for the low, low price of $2.00?!   At the kick-off event for Calvary's new women's ministry, that's where!  "We are All Students" is the theme for this fun-and-information-filled morning which is being planned for Saturday, August 28th, right here at Calvary.  Following the back-to-school theme, the event will fill you in on all the plans being made for classes that will be held in six-week "quarters" (two quarters per "semester") beginning September 12th. Tickets for the kick-off will be available in the church foyer on August 8, 15, and 22 or may be purchased at the door for $4.00 (still a real bargain!). 
 
Classes tentatively being planned for the first quarter (Sept. 12 to Oct. 24) are as follows: 
Connect and Grow classes (sessions that will aid YOU either spiritually, health-wise, or in  learning some new skill or hobby):
For Women Only, led by Terri Edgar (A Bible study to help understand the men in your life)
Praying for Your Adult Children, led by Laurie Keller
Beginning Scrapbooking, led by Ashley Selvey
                      
Connect and Go classes (sessions that will help you reach out to meet the needs of OTHERS):
Quill Ministry, led by Susan Wilson (writing notes of encouragement and support to community leaders, men and women in the Armed Services, church leaders, and others)
Support Group for the Republic Pregnancy Resource Center, led by Becky Rader (planning and carrying out related projects). 
Operation Christmas Child (planning, promoting, and carrying out Calvary's annual collection of Christmas gifts to be sent to underprivileged children in other countries).
 
Ladies who wish to attend the Sunday evening worship service will be able to do that at 6:00 followed by a Connect and Go class (see above). 
 
Students (that's you!) can attend a Connect and Grow class from 6:00 to 6:50 on Sunday nights and a Connect and Go class from 7:10 to 8:00 that evening with a coffee break in between.  All classes will be free with the exception of some that may have a nominal fee for supplies.  Free child care will be provided with 48-hour advance notice of the number of children and their ages.  The possibility of some day-time week-day classes in the future is being discussed.  Potential classes for the second quarter (November 7 - December 12) will be revealed during the "We Are All Students" event on August 28th. The Wednesday morning Bible studies led by Joyce Barnhart will continue and will also be under the Women's Ministry umbrella.  A new study on Spiritual Gifts will be held Sept. 8th through Sept. 29th.
