2010-11-05T17:17:00.000-07:00

Join us for an exciting study on Mary Kassian's book, "Girls Gone Wise in a World Gone Wild."

Mary contrasts the attitudes and behaviors of a Girl-Gone-Wild from Proverbs 7, to a Girl-Gone-Wise from Proverbs 31. This study is for women of any age group, for we're all in the process of growing in Christ-likeness. For more information about the book and author, visit www.girlsgonewise.com. This study begins January 5 and meets through the month of May. Sign up via email to gccwomen@gmail.com, or in the information superhallway at Gateway Christian Church. Facilitator will be Juli Nelson, and the book cost is $14.99.

Next GCC Women's Bible Study

2010-08-20T08:55:00.000-07:00

For those women who are looking for a study teaching on doing life right in the middle of God's plan, this book by Lysa Terkeurst may be just what is needed! It's a great follow-up study after having completed Beth Moore's Breaking Free study. Now that women have turned all their "stuff" over to their loving, wise God who has great plans for their lives, the next step is to walk right into what God wants to do with us! You can read a sample of this book at www.christianbook.com/happens-women-experiencing-life-extraordinary-ways/9780736919227/pd/919228#CURR.

The study will take place at GCC as one of our Wednesday Night Life classes at 7:00 to 8:00p.m. each Wednesday night starting with a kickoff Sept. 15 and classes from Sept. 22 to Nov. 17. The facilitator is Juli Nelson and the cost of the books is $7.99 each. Every lesson will be based on one chapter in the book, and at the end of each chapter are some questions and scriptures to explore which will be discussed in class. This study does not have daily homework, but to get the most from the class, it would be beneficial to read through each chapter before the discussion. Sign up for this class in the Information Superhallway at GCC or by email to gccwomen@gmail.com. Hope to see you there!

Ladies' Retreat

2009-05-24T17:12:00.000-07:00

We just completed our Ladies' Retreat at the Limbaugh/Nelson cabin on beautiful Lake Pomme de Terre! Friday night we had a great salad supper and then had our first session with a meaningful time of worship, a hilarious skit, and an introduction/discussion on the story of the Woman at the Well. Next was our first SpaStation, choosing between a facial, hand treatment, or pedicure. Some finished off the evening with a relaxing time in the hottub. Saturday morning we arose to the wonderful smell of frying bacon and eggs along with fruit and blueberry buckle. We moved on to more great worship and a discussion time about thirst and dryness. Then came our next SpaStation, and a break for lunch. Finally, we worshiped again, watched a skit about Jesus in Aisle Three, and discussed how we tap into the Living Water on a regular basis. We finished that session by praying for one another one at a time and sharing deeply. We had one more SpaStation to complete, then cleanup, supper, and return trip home. Sure wish you all could have been there! Fun, sharing, and relaxing were had by all!
