As women we know that we need other women for support and encouragement.  Women face many issues in life and we want to be able to "spur one another on toward love and good deeds" according to God's plan (Hebrews 10:24).  We strive to do that through many aspects of the ministry.   We have weekly bible studies covering different subjects that address life situations and how to handle them using God's Word and how to daily grow to be more like Him.  We have fellowships, overnight retreats, luncheons and other events throughout the year to get women together to share and grow and have fellowship so we can develop meaningful relationships with each other.  And we publish a newsletter called Lassoing Hearts from time to time to offer encouragement to ladies.
