What is Girlfriends Unlimited?
Girlfriends Unlimited is a new approach to women's ministry. It looks different, sounds different, and feels different. It casts a new vision for reaching and connecting women in the church, one that's filled with fun and energy. In today's over-scheduled world, most women don't have the opportunity to form true friendships and just have fun together. Friendship is one of God's special gifts to us and we think every woman should experience it. And what better place than in the church!

How is Girlfriends Unlimited different from my current women's ministry?
Most churches offer Bible studies, prayer groups, and the occasional women's tea. These are all wonderful and meet the needs of one group of women in your church. But there is a large group of women inside and outside the church for whom these activities seem intimidating or simply "not for me." Many women are not "there yet" in their faith. Girlfriends Unlimited provides an inviting, non-threatening way for women to step inside the church and begin to build a relationship with other Christian women, and eventually a stronger  relationship with Jesus. They come for the fun and stay for God's love.

Women's Retreat
We get together once a year for this amazing and heart-warming event.  Join us in 2011 for our next retreat.  Watch for details and consider retreating with us.  We would love for you to join us.
