  • Widows Connection Dates for Winter/Spring 2025

    Widows Connection provides a safe space for widows to encourage, equip, and engage with one another through the instruction of the Word of God and our experiences in widowhood. Our hope is to live in such a way that we bring God glory in our relationships with Jesus, at home, at work, in the community, and in our church.


    All widows are invited to join us for our three Sunday gatherings as we look at the lives of three widows from the Bible. These lunch gatherings are provided at no cost and are open to the community, so save the dates and feel free to bring a friend!
