Women's Ministries
Women are called by God to help their husbands and submit to them (Eph 5:22-24),
to care for their children (Titus 2:3-4), to oversee the home with joy and diligence
(Proverbs 31), to minister in the church by teaching other women (Titus 2:3-4) and
being active in service (1 Timothy 5:9-10). This high calling requires women to
be passionately committed to God’s Word, to God’s church, to their families, and
to honoring God in the work He has provided to enrich their homes.
To this end we seek to provide women with weekly encouragement in practical Christian
living, with opportunities for in-depth Bible study, and with the oversight and
implementation of multiple service ministries within the church.
Women’s Bible Studies
These studies are held at various times throughout the year in order to best meet
the spiritual needs of the women in our church. We offer inductive and topical studies
on a rotating basis.
Prison Ministry
On the last Sunday and following Thursday of each month the women meet at the Blount
County Jail to encourage, pray with, and teach God’s Word to the inmates. Each evening
we have the privilege of ministering to 50-60 inmates who are starving to hear God’s
Word taught with depth and truth.
Women’s Ministries
The women of Grace are involved in a variety of service and support ministries such
as preparing food for the sick, ministering to elderly, and supporting area ministries
such as the Chilhowee Baptist Center and the Pregnancy Resource Center.
Women’s Retreat
Each year we hold a retreat to help us grow in our relationship with the Lord and
with one another. These are excellent times of fellowship and in-depth Bible study.
