PURPOSE
That the women of Grace will be connected and thriving, will love and be loved, will serve and be served, all while growing in the grace and knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ, to the glory of God and the building up of his church.
The ministry is led by the Women’s Ministry Coordinator. You can contact the church office if you have questions and would like to be contacted.
