Northwest Bible Church Women's Ministry

Can you believe the semester has already been over for a week?!

Don’t worry if you are missing small group time though, because sign ups for summer groups are coming next week!

Summer is a great time to join a group even if you can’t participate during the school year. Groups meet for 5 weeks and are offered at various times throughout the week and the summer.

Watch your email inboxes and here on Instagram for a link to sign up!

If you were at retreat this weekend you got to hear Mrs. Nancy Williams talk about how Heart2Heart got started 40 years ago.

The origin story is that someone told her they were looking for an older woman to mentor them. At the time Mrs. Nancy said she didn't know any older women, and then she realized they meant her! Then, she worked with Vickie Kraft and started Heart2Heart at Northwest.

We want you to be apart of the legacy of women who have done life together for all these years.

If you are interested in becoming a Mentor (even if you don't consider yourself an older woman!), please email [email protected].

If you would like to be matched to a Mentor, please complete our Mentee Application at the link in our bio or NorthwestBible.org/Women.

Are you joining us this weekend?!

We have so much in store for our retreat partipants and cannot wait to spend this time with each of you!

If you are attending the retreat, tag us in your posts and stories on Instagram! And we would also love it if you would email us at
[email protected] through out the weekend with your photos and memories.

If you can’t make it this weekend, would you commit to praying that the retreat is nourishing to our souls and brings us closer to Jesus?

Can you believe our ministry year is almost over?

The board had it’s last regular business board meeting Tuesday night and discussed what is left of this year and what they are anticipating for next year.

One big thing the board would love is if you would considering volunteering in women’s ministry next year. We would love for women’s ministry to be a place where you can plug in and use your gifts. We have volunteer needs that encompass a variety of time commitments, so even if you don’t have a ton of time to spare, maybe you can just serve for a one day event!

If you are interested in volunteering, please email [email protected].

This is the second to the last week of the semester. Can you believe how fast time has flown?

Be on the lookout for sign ups for the summer studies just around the corner!

We are so grateful for a Savior who gives us abundantly more than we can ask or imagine.

Happy Easter!

We are so grateful for all the women who opened their homes and helped us host this fun event. We had a large number of women across generations who were able to gather and have some fun together.

Heart2Heart Mentoring Book Recommendation!

With Millennial and Generation Z women coming of age, new approaches to women’s ministry are required to meet their distinct needs! This book offers a model on how to energize women’s ministry for all generations and in multiple settings.

A great book for mentors to pick up to help them connect and relate to younger women!

If you have a great resource that pertains to mentoring, we’d love to hear about it! Comment below.

We recently had our February Ministry to Women Board Meeting where we discussed everything happening in women’s ministry, but we focused a large chunk of time to on our upcoming Spring Retreat!

We are so excited for all the fun, connection, and study that is going to happen during that time.

We don’t want you to miss it!

"The whole point of Christmas is that Jesus came to reconnect us with God."

2023 Northwest Women's Christmas Lunch

We hope this thought brings you joy. God always had a plan.

Merry Christmas!

Known for her wisdom, warmth, and knowledge of Scripture, Nancy DeMoss Wohlgemuth has encouraged millions through her books, radio programs, and conferences. Now she’s back with a legacy work on Titus 2 and its powerful vision for women:

Woman to woman. Older to younger. Day to day. Life to life.
This is God’s beautiful plan.

The Titus 2 model of older women living out the gospel alongside younger women is vital for us all to thrive. It is mutually strengthening, glorifies God, and makes His truth believable to our world.

This is Christian community as God designed it.
