Mark: 6 Ways To Encounter God – Bishop Tom Berlin
Six Ways to Encounter God will be led by Mark Dodge. When we live, when we worship, when we pray, do we really encounter God? What are God’s qualities, and what effect do they have on us? In this simple, inspiring book, pastor and author Tom Berlin introduces us to the living God and urges us to respond.
Cathy: Boundaries – Dr. Henry Cloud
Boundaries – Dr. Henry Cloud and John Townsend – Christians often focus so much on being loving and giving that they forget their own limitations. There are physical, mental, emotional and spiritual boundaries that impact our health and the health of our relationships. Come discover how sound boundaries give you the freedom to walk as the loving, giving, fulfilled individuals God created you to be.
It is highly recommended that anyone taking these classes will need to purchase their books on Amazon.

In LIFT (Ladies in Fellowship Together), our mission is to go forth, gather, encourage, develop, and grow all mothers and caregivers to realize their potential as women, mothers, and leaders in the name of Jesus Christ. “Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as you are doing.” We meet together to decompress, recharge, and develop meaningful friendships amid mothering. Our meetings include brunch, speakers, crafts, and lots of conversation. It’s a time to connect with moms in the same season, as well as mentor moms who have traveled this road ahead of us. While moms are connecting with other moms, the little ones enjoy fun activities and snacks in the nursery.
The meeting dates are:
Be watching for the 2024 fall meeting dates.
