Living Hope Women's Ministry

Women’s Ministry at LHC is ...

...a place women of all ages meet together for Word and Spirit teaching, fellowship, sharing, and prayer. We have multiple ministry opportunities for women in every season of life. 

…a place we as women can hear each other’s heart and be heard by each other. Every woman desires to be heard and known and then accepted for who she really is. We are all in different stages of growing and maturing and in different seasons of life. Being heard without judgement or condemnation opens a door for relationship that fosters true heart change. None of us can change by ourselves. Change happens in the presence of love. We cannot love until we first know God’s love.

...a place where we can speak the truth in love with life-giving words that bless and encourage each other and spur each other’s own growing in grace and truth.

... a place where we hold up each other’s arms and are as iron that sharpens iron. We were never meant to live the Christian life alone. We cannot live successfully as women, daughters, sisters, mothers, grandmothers, or friends if we are isolated trying to pull ourselves up by our own bootstraps. We support each other in fellowship, learning, and growing together in activities. 

...a place where we bear each other’s burdens - those things that are bigger than life and never meant to be borne alone. We support each other in prayer. 

...a place where we worship together because worship is the highest form of prayer. It attracts the presence of God. It dispels the enemy. It lifts the human spirit, and it unites the body of Christ. Maybe we will sing only one song together, but when is the last time you heard a room full of female voices lifted up in unison in worship to the Lord. When is the last time You knelt down with two other women to pour out your heart to the Lord because a threefold cord is not easily broken.

Flourish Mentoring Journey

Flourish is a year-long discipleship ministry designed to root women deeply in God’s Word through Scripture-based mentoring thus, giving the opportunity for them to develop strong, meaningful mentoring relationships that encourage and challenge one another in their walk with Jesus while navigating through the seasons of life together one on one or in small groups.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Kindred Warriors
Kindred Warriors serves as a place for moms, of all ages, to join together to specifically pray for our spouses, our children and each other. We use scripture as a tool for our prayers, and follow the Holy Spirit’s leading as we pray to draw closer to Him.

This ministry was born out of a need that we saw for mothers. Prayer is one of the most powerful tools we have as mothers and we felt led by God to simply start praying together. We pray that God will always lead this group and we are here to be vessels that He uses.

Widows of Might is ….

our Living Hope widows’ group. We meet once a month to share a meal, to connect, be seen, heard, loved, and encouraged as we share our hearts and pray for each other.  We embrace God’s definition and plan for widows as we hold Anna of Luke chapter 2 as our role model. We have much to offer the body of Christ through fervent, prevailing prayer, words of encouragement, and being Titus 2 women for the generations behind us. 

Psalm 68:4-5 NLT “Sing praises to God and to His name! Sing loud praises to Him who rides the clouds. His name is the LORD—rejoice in His presence! Father to the fatherless, Defender of Widows—this is God, whose dwelling is holy.” 

​​​​​​

College Girls Share & Prayer

 

We exist so that every college and young adult girl at Living Hope Church would have a place to cultivate their faith through worship, prayer, and meaningful Christ-centered friendships, all rooted in a Biblical worldview. Our heart is that every girl would know that she is seen, included, wanted, and loved by Jesus and His church. Our mission is to create space for each girl to taste and see the goodness of God for themselves as He expands their faith, taking them from one degree of glory to the next.

 

Moms Together

The purpose of Moms Together is to bring together moms of various ages and stages of motherhood in order to facilitate Christian friendship and fellowship and to follow the pattern of Titus 2:3-5 for older women to support and encourage younger women to love their husbands and children.  Toward this end, we desire first of all to provide opportunities for women to spend time together in ways that promote connection and relationship building (a coming alongside and sharing of life together) - to provide a sense of community and to minimize feelings of isolation that can arise during this season of life. 

Secondly, we desire to provide encouragement and resources to empower women to apply biblical principles and priorities to their family relationships and home life.   Finally, we desire to equip women with practical knowledge and the confidence they need to create a God honoring environment in their homes.

Rooted & Risen

This course is designed to help women encounter Christ deeply, find healing in His finished work, and step into the fullness of who they are as daughters of the King. Through biblical teaching and spiritual disciplines, women are equipped and empowered by the Holy Spirit to navigate life's seasons anchored in truth, walk in freedom from the past, and step boldly into the greater purpose for which they were created.
