Women's Steering Committee
This is a group of women from 9 local churches that are meeting
together in an effort to reach the women of our community with
Christ. Their heart is to work together as the Church to meet the
needs of women in Bradford, as well as encourage and build up
women of our local churches.
Currently there are women from:
Bradford Alliance Church
Bradford Baptist Church
Bradford Community Church
Bradford United Church
Bond Head United Church
Holland Marsh CRC
Holy Martyrs of Japan
Riverdrive Bible Chapel
Springdale CRC
St John's Presbyterian Church
Our first meeting was March 21st 2005 at 7:30 pm at the Hub, and we
now meet once a month.
Bradford Women's Fall Retreat:
We had an incredible time together as local women shared their stories
throughout the weekend. It was a sweet time of fellowship together, and
just a relaxing retreat, focusing on the Lord for a time.
With the added interest, we are already investigating larger conference
centres for next year. Keep listening for more information!
Mercy House Update:
Renovations are well underway, but volunteers are always needed. There is
much work to be done to be up to code with the Town. It's been great to see
Small Group Bible Studies and youth groups come out to help. If you are
interested, please contact us and we would love to connect you with our
project manager!
We have 2 staff in place for the home, plus several qualified volunteers who have
put in applications to work at the home. We are very excited as we seek to meet
a need just as the Lord did, to love unconditionally these women in need. Please
pray as we continue to put the staff together and start to focus on training our
volunteers! |
