Women’s Ministry
Ministry Overview
Lighthouse’s Women’s Ministry is committed to helping women grow in their walks with the Lord, through teaching from God’s Word and fellowship in a variety of contexts.
We hold several events throughout the year, each of which is designed to teach how the Word of God applies specifically to women in their walks with the Lord. Our prayer is that the women at Lighthouse would have different opportunities to grow in their faith together as they fellowship and learn from the Word.
Seasonal Events
Lighthouse’s Women’s Ministry holds four annual events – the Women’s Spring Event, SALT, the Women’s Fall Event, and Women’s Christmas Breakfast.
Teaching Focus:
In the spring and the fall, our events have a teaching focus. Topics are chosen to help ladies learn to love the Lord and those in their lives better. Past event topics have included how to study the Bible, a biblical understanding of friendship, and what it means to serve and love those who are hurting.
- Women’s Spring Event (Saturday usually in March or April)
- Women’s Fall Event (Saturday usually in October or November – please note that there is no Fall Event during Women’s Retreat years)
Evangelistic Focus:
In the summer and the winter, events have an evangelistic focus. Ladies are encouraged to bring their non-believing friends and family members to hear testimonies of God’s great grace and the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
- SALT (Tuesday evening in July) – A cooking demonstration, dinner, Bible Study and small group discussion.
- Women’s Christmas Breakfast (first Saturday in December) – A time of learning and fellowship over breakfast as we kick off the Christmas season!
Lamplighters
Lamplighters is a ministry for mothers of primarily preschool-aged children or younger. It is a wonderful time of fellowship, biblical teaching, and sharing in small groups all while our little ones are under the care of loving volunteers.
Lamplighters meets during the Winter/Spring (February-May) and Fall (September-November) on Tuesday mornings at church. Online registration usually starts a month prior to the first meeting of the session.
