The
vision of the Women's Ministry is to be a community of women
who have opened their hearts to God and to each other. To be
women who give themselves to becoming like Christ in serving
the Body, expressing their spiritual gifts (in large and small
ways), and extending themselves to the lost.

Facilitates
God's work in the lives of the women of the church by providing
a means through which they can grow spiritually and become equipped
to serve Him. This ministry also functions to bring unity among
the women in the Body through offering opportunities for fellowship.

This
yearly event is offered to the women of Maple Ridge as a way
to get away from the daily routine and have the opportunity
to reconnect with the Lord and with each other. This year's
day retreat includes planned times of worship, Bible study,
and interaction with other women in group settings. There is
also ample time made for quiet reflection, and fellowship. Mark
Saturday, October 2nd, 2010 and watch for more information.

An ongoing ministry
at Maple Ridge, this program is designed for women to develop
a deeper more meaningful relationship with God and with another
sister in Christ. Women who are paired up will meet regularly
with one another for at least one year. Each relationship will
have its own unique characteristics but teaching, modeling,
prayer and God's Word are its common threads. If you desire
to participate in this program either as a mentor or a mentoree,
please contact the church office.
