BIBLE STUDIES
This spring 2025, we will be studying Philippians together, using the book "Philippians, Finding Joy when Life is Hard," by Josiah D. Bancroft. Philippians "helps us know and understand the implications of all that Christ has done for us, in us, and among us—and how rooting ourselves in Christ can bring unshakeable freedom and joy, regardless of circumstances” (Bancroft).
We hope you will join us Thursdays mornings from 9:30 am - 11 am from January 23rd through April 10th. Childcare is available, please contact Sally Goodwill (863-325-5200).
DISCIPLESHIP GROUPS
Would you like to explore how your faith can impact your day to day living and relationships? Would you like to meet consistently with a small group of 5-7 women for conversation and encouragement centered on the power of the gospel?
Join a discipleship group! 2 options are available:
Spiritual Habits, groups commit to growing in the habits of reading the Bible, journaling, and prayer cards. Together we experience meeting God and develop the habit of looking to him in all circumstances. The commitment is for 1 or 2 semesters.
Discipling by Grace, groups commit to working through 4 units of 6-8 lessons each, covering the foundational truths of what we believe, how our beliefs can transform our hearts and lives, and how we grow in love for God and others.
These groups are available as we have trained leaders, which means a waiting list is necessary at times. If you are interested please contact Vicky Portlock (vicky@redeemerwinterhaven.org, 863-289-1516). If you need to purchase a DBG booklet you can do so here.
FRIENDSHIPS
We encourage every woman to develop friendships, by taking responsibility to reach out to other women and engage in relationships that mutually listen, pray and follow up with one another. We also have periodic social events. (Join our facebook group or check out the calendar to stay in the know with what's going on with Women's Ministry at Redeemer)
EVENTS & RETREATS
Ladies, please plan to join Friday, October 18, from 6-8pm at Brittany Chambless' home (3208 Heron Cove) for a night out. Bring a friend and your favorite dessert or appetizer and we'll provide the drinks. Let us know if you plan on attending by RSVPing below.
Our next retreat will be February 2026.
Vision and Values
The goal of women’s ministry is to equip and encourage women to walk in and enjoy gospel friendships with one another. Friendships characterized by prayer and encouragement to live out of the fullness of Christ’s love. Friendships that create an environment that allows for celebration of life’s joys and honest struggle with life’s hardships and sin.
We believe this is in keeping with Redeemer’s vison of making Christ’s invisible Kingdom visible. As we become women more deeply aware of who Christ is and how Christ loves us, that love will overflow to those around us, impacting the Church and the other communities we are part of for God’s glory.
