Growing Roots: Dependent on the Spirit

Women of all ages are warmly invited to an inspiring time of connection, fellowship, and spiritual renewal as we gather for Growing Roots: Dependent on the Spirit. This special event is designed to draw our hearts together as women and to deepen our dependence on God through His Word and the power of the Holy Spirit.

Grounded in the truth of 1 Corinthians 3:6–7, which reminds us that “God gives the growth,” this gathering will point us toward the One who nourishes our faith and causes it to flourish.

To help us reflect on the growth God produces in our lives, we’ll enjoy a hands-on activity: decorating pots and planting bulbs. As we create and plant, we’ll be reminded that spiritual growth comes not from our own striving but from dependence on the Spirit, who nourishes, strengthens, and transforms us from the inside out. Come be refreshed. Come be encouraged. Come grow deeper roots—together.


Use the sign-up link to RSVP. Childcare is available.
