The CWF Women will host a shower for Kenny and Colleen March 4 in fellowship hall

CWF at Faith Community Christian Church is active and alive. The first Tuesday of each month all ladies are encouraged to develop their personal journey of faith by participating in this local ministry of the church. Through Disciples Women-Christian Women's Fellowship sponsored events women are invited to share the Good News through:

Worship for spiritual growth and renewed discipleship; Bible study for greater knowledge, understanding, and service; Issue study for action and advocacy; Mission study for knowledge, understanding and acceptance of others; Service/action for hands-on/personal involvement; Fellowship/networking for building the faith community with other women; Leadership training for service to God in the DW-CWF, the church, and the community; Stewardship of time, talent, and resources for the mission of the church.

Some ministries of the church that our local CWF has supported in 2005 are: Mobile Meals, offering to Basic Mission Finance, Week of Compassion, Operation Class Act, Monthly cost of outside lighting, Christian reading material of the homeless, new worship cloths, maintained kitchen items.

ask God to help you be a good steward.
