"Every woman you know is making a request of her friends though it usually goes unspoken. Here’s what they ask: Motivate me. Call out to me. Believe in me. Encourage me when I’m tempted to quit. Speak truth to me and remind me of my deepest values. Help me achieve my greatest potential. Tell me again what God called me to be, what I might become." -John Ortberg
The women’s ministry of Surrey Hills Baptist Church wants you on our TEAM! Our heart’s desire is to raise up women to be who God has designed them to be—women of strength, dignity, and character reaching out in love to the Surrey community.
Our women’s ministry is designed for women of all ages. Our objectives are:
Transformation
"Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!" 2 Corinthians 5:17
Just as a caterpillar is transformed into a beautiful butterfly, we want to help women be transformed into the new creation God wants them to be.
Evangelism
"But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth." Acts 1:8
We desire to reach beyond the walls of our physical church building to reach our community for Jesus Christ.
Assimilation
"Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing." 1 Thessalonians 5:11
Women need a point of connection. We want to help women find where they fit—in SHBC and in life.
Ministry
"There are different kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit. There are different kinds of service, but the same Lord. There are different kinds of working, but the same God works all of them in all men." 1 Corinthians 12:4-6
God expects us to meet the needs of those around us. The goal of our ministry team is to meet tangible needs of the women in our church and community.
Meeting times will be announced in advance. For the remainder of this year we will not be having Women's Events. Instead, we will be focusing on reaching out to minister to others by helping with Awanas, Thanksgiving dinner, the Fall Festival, and a special project in December to help throw a Christmas party for the Canadian County Foster Children Call 373-2139 for more information.
