Prayer and Fellowship
Share with others during prayer and sharing times. This is a safe place where everyone is working on their own journey.
Before each group session, you’ll get a journaling prompt. This will help your thoughts flow. Then, when you come together, you’ll be ready to share what came up for you. Many women find it powerful to learn that others are having similar struggles and hear the creative ways God is bringing hope amongst the chaos of their lives.
We can’t wait to connect and grow with you!
