Women's Ministry

Ladies, It is our desire to use Gathering, Growing, Connecting, and Celebrating as a means to help make a large church feel smaller.

We want each woman at Brookside to be able to connect through some of our Connecting times. We also desire for you to find a Bible study within our Growing ministry where you can study God’s Word with other women. We hope that you will join in Celebrating and supporting each other at the many different baby and bridal showers. Plus, our large Gathering events bring us all together for fun, inspiration, encouragement, and instruction from God’s Word.

I believe that women are instrumental in the work of God on this earth, and it is my desire to see women at Brookside know God personally and passionately, and to use their gifts and talents to serve Him.

For His glory,
Kathy Keltner

CELEBRATING

Bridal & Baby Shower Ministry

Showers are designed to minister to members at two very important times in their lives: a marriage and the birth of their first baby. All the women of the church can serve in this ministry of fellowship and edification, by providing real household needs for either a bride or first-time mother. All showers are announced in the bulletin and the Stall Street Journal.
