Women at St Mary's
Our aim in all we do is to encourage women in their love and service of Jesus and to equip them to share him with those around them.
Events for women include:
Bible Study groups
We run regular day-time Bible study groups for women throughout the week. Whether you are a young mum or well into retirement age, a new Christian or someone who has followed Jesus for years, there is a Bible study for you! Some groups meet on Tuesday mornings at the church with a crèche, others in people's homes. There's time to look at God's word and pray for each other. Come and join us! Contact the church office for more info.
Women's Breakfasts
Held once a term with an external speaker, croissants, coffee, chat and an engaging talk.
