There's much to see here. So, take your time, look around, and learn all there is to know about us.
We are a group of Christian women, whose purpose is to support local, national, and world wide mission programs. We do this by sponsoring a bazaar each year, the first Saturday in December. At the bazaar there will be handmade quilts and throws, as well as many gift items for Christmas. We have lots of fun and fellowship and invite all ladies and their skills to come and join us every Thursday morning from 9 am to 12 noon.
Some of the programs we help with are:
Head Start------furnishing school supplies for the kids, kids books for them, and pajamas and toys for the kids at Christmas time
PB&J (peanut butter and jelly)------ for the food bank in Riverside to help the needy
Westley Foundation------a group of university students ministering on campus
PCC (Pregnancy Care Center)---we collect baby bottles filled with coins to help women that are pregnant
Come join us on Thursdays and on Sundays
The N.O.W. COMMITTEE stands for Nurture, Outreach and Witness. This committee is made up of a chair and members selected for three year terms as well the chairs of all other church committees. One goal of the committee is to provide communications with the entire church family through emails, phone calls, visits and letters. This committee seeks to involve all members of the church family in some aspect of service to the church which includes participation in the activities provided by the NOW Committee.
This committee schedules the refreshments that are served following church services on Sunday. They also organize and provide monthly Fellowship Dinners and entertainment as well as all other social events for holiday celebrations such as our annual Christmas Party and receptions. This committee also organizes and provides food for funerals as well as for members who have extended illnesses.
This committee has also sponsored projects to support the Huntsville Head Start and will be providing a reading program starting this fall.
The members of the NOW Committee also work with the Women’s Mission Group and support the many activities of that group.
The NOW Committee seeks to ensure that our church is friendly and warm making our members feel wanted and needed. We have measures in place to ensure that all guests are greeted and made to feel welcome.
The NOW Committee is dedicated to serving the church and modeling our Christian faith in our daily interactions with other church members and in the community.
