Change built on the Changeless!

Change built on the Changeless! Women of the Word at GRACE Chapel in 2008-2009 are putting into action what buzz words of current media cannot approach. Moving location from the main sanctuary to the chapel area, numbers increasing, and teaching diversified, we have broken out of stereotypes and limited expectations through the prayerful leadership of our women’s director, Cathy Clark.

In studying the book of Ephesians, women are excited to affirm the will of God in their midst, exulting in their being chosen before the foundation of the world, having been adopted into the family of God through Jesus Christ. How magnificently the grace of God and faith in Christ bestowed by Him on each one of us transforms each week! As we complete lessons in Lenya Heitzig and Penny Pierce Rose’s Live Abundantly: A Study of Ephesians, we know the radical change to which He calls us. During the twelve weeks of this study, transitioning into a study of James, women from every walk of life are welcomed into a loving family relationship, sustained by changeless and timeless truths designed for women in such a time as this.

Women of Faith


Here's a few of us that went to Women of Faith. It was a fun, refreshing time (except the bus ride, but that's another story) with hilarious, yet poignant speakers like Luci Swindoll, Marilyn Meberg, Patsy Clairmont, Sandi Patti and Sheila Walsh. Dramatic and comic sketches by Nicole Johnson and music by Nicole C. Mullens and Natalie Grant kept the energy level high.



Mother & Daughter: Ronda McPeek and Helen Hardy

Another Mother & Daughter set: Antionette Benak and Marie Ramirez.

Antionette was our fearless bus driver. She was an incredible blessing to all of us.
