Women's MinistriesGrace offers a variety of ministries geared just for the needs of women of all ages.
Women's Retreat - The 2010 Women's Retreat on January 9th, 2009 was a great success. Our guest speaker, Dr. Norma Cook Everist, guided us through the Women of Faith Through the Life Cycle presentation. A delicious luncheon was served at the Bull Valley Golf Club. Pizza and fellowship was enjoyed after the event by many of the attendees. Thank you to all who put this event together. We look forward to next years gathering. The women's retreat is a yearly event at Grace. Women of all ages are welcome.
