Sharing the Journey is a welcoming community where women of all ages and stages of faith come together to receive spiritual nourishment and grow in faith. Our prayer is to empower and equip women by providing a supportive space for connection, encouragement, and growth. In 2025, our focus will be 'Who is our Source?' - seeking to deepen our relationship with Christ as the foundation of our faith. Guided by the words of Colossians 2:6-7 (NLT): 'And now, just as you accepted Christ Jesus as your Lord, you must continue to follow him. Let your roots grow down into him, and let your lives be built on him. Then your faith will grow strong in the truth you were taught, and you will overflow with thankfulness'. We strive to build lives that are deeply rooted in Him.
During the year, there are a various opportunities to gather together, and you are welcome to come to any and all of them!
