New Women’s Bible Study
Women's Confidential 12 step study starting May 22nd 7 to 9 pm. "You can't heal a wound by saying it's not there." Hey ladies, we're getting ready to start another amazing adventure for any woman who is not at peace, lonely, discontent, or struggling in an area of your life. If you have a hurt, habit or hang up with which you are struggling, come and start the healing process. It's completely confidential and the class is not held at our church. It's up to a year long commitment on Tuesday nights working through 4 workbooks. I've lead or been involved in these step studies for 6 years, and I am amazed at the growth of my relationship with God, the growth of real relationships with others and my own personal growth. I've personally seen God do amazing things in the lives of over a hundred women. If you think you'd like to try this, please give a call or email me for more information. Looking forward to healing and growing with you, Kitty Morton 603 401 7962. catherinemorton@comcast.net
