Women's Ministry

The Women's Ministry offers various 7-10 week studies during the year that are offered in the morning and evening.  Studies will resume in the fall of 2024. Tasting Room offers two times a week to attend a group study. We have a Wednesday Morning at 9:30 am and an evening Group that meets on Thursdays at 6:30pm.  
The Coffee Break study provides women with the opportunity to investigate the Bible in a non-denominational, seeker-friendly, small group setting. There are 3 levels available.
Both Wednesday Morning studies offer FREE childcare.

Coffee Break Fall 2024
Coffee Break resumes on 9/18/24 with a 9-week study called Christian Virtues. Virtue may not be a word you see every day, but it defines the qualities of a person of character. One of the good things about belonging to God is that He develops virtues in you. This nine-session Bible Study, leads you to investigate-and learn to practice-key Christian virtues: faith, hope, love, wisdom, justice, courage, moderation, integrity and perseverance. 
Quilts are a tangible item that can bring comfort to people who have a special need or challenge in their lives. The idea of this ministry is to bring together those who love quilting to create quilts while praying for the folks who will be receiving them. The group meets on the 2nd and 4th Monday each month, from 10:00 am - 2:00 pm. They would love for you to join them! If you would like to request a quilt for someone, please contact Jeanette at the church office at 760-941-1430.

Refuge "12 Step" - The Twelve Steps are a set of biblical principles that outline a course of action for tackling problems such as drug and alcohol addiction, overeating, sex addiction, and more. As we work through the Twelve Steps, we find the path God has chosen and revealed in the Scriptures for the rescue and transformation of broken lives. We find hope and strength through walking with others, entrusting our lives to God, and   allowing Him to direct our decisions and plans. Meetings are Mondays @ 7:00 pm. Contact Ron Bell for   more information - (760)716-1792 or click here.
We also have Biblical Counseling available for anyone that would like a more one on one approach. Contact Pastor Ben for more information.
