WOMEN’S
MINISTRY

Creating opportunities for women to have community with each other and communion with God. We create events and offerings that allow women to encourage each other, experience Jesus, and draw closer to his heart.

Women’s Bible Study Wednesday mornings 9:15-10:45am, in the Fellowship Hall
Come in person and sit at discussion tables OR join through Zoom! This year, we will take a deep dive into Joshua, Judges, Ruth, and 1 Samuel 1-10. Our theme is “Conquering to King” as we study the time period from when the Israelites arrived in Canaan, through the years of the judges, until the Israelites petitioned God for a king. Want to understand the Old Testament better? Curious how these Scriptures point to & expect Christ? Join us for a historical, theological, & practical study! Childcare available. Contact Cynthia with any questions. To revisit previous studies, check out our podcast recordings at https://ljpres.org/women/bible-study

Interesting in joining a monthly Prayer Pod with other women who are also seeking to follow Christ with their lives? Prayer Pods meet together monthly to share life, encourage each other, & pray together. New groups are being formed! Reach out to Cynthia if you would like to be part of one or would be interested in hosting one.

Community Bible Study (CBS)
Thursdays 10-12, in-person or online, evening online also available.
Come see what happens in people’s lives when they discover God through the study of His Word, the Bible. Our classes meet weekly during the school year. Each class participant receives a course book with a commentary and home study questions. Each week, you’ll participate in small-group discussions and large-group teaching. From time to time, fellowship meals will provide special times of sharing and relationship-building within the class.
We are studying “From the Red Sea to the Jordan River” looking at the Israelite’s journey in the wilderness. We are back in person this fall with class time returning to 10am-noon. We will also continue to offer morning and evening online core groups for those that prefer the online format. Register at https://lajolla.cbsclass.org/ or contact Jennifer at cbsJenniferS@gmail.com for more information.
