UPCOMING EVENT:
Beyond… Pursuing God’s Passion
September 12-13, 2008
Can’t seem to get your head up out of the “have-to’s” long enough to see what God has in store? Do you want more from your spiritual life? Could you use a night away from your regular routine to enjoy some girl time? Join us for our first Highpoint Women’s Retreat where we will discover together how to take our relationship with God to the next level. We’ll learn from the heartfelt teaching of guest speaker Nancy Binkley as well as participate in dynamic worship led by Highpoint’s own Carolyn Long. All the while, we’ll be nestled away in the restful setting of the Stephen Olford Center of Memphis. The retreat begins at 6:30PM on Friday and runs through noon on Saturday, September 12-13, 2008. Come to connect, come to relax, come to go Beyond!
Registration now open.
_____________________________________________________________________________
As Christian women in the 21st Century, we are called to fulfill so many roles in our homes, careers, and relationships.
At Highpoint, we want to come alongside women and provide opportunities for us to learn God’s word and to build relationships with other women that can encourage us on the journey. Through weekly morning and evening Bible studies and connection events throughout the year, we desire to get you equipped in God’s Word and connected to other Christian women.
Equipping
The Highpoint Women’s ministry provides Bible studies on a semester system. Each semester women meet on Thursday mornings and evenings to be challenged by God’s truths and to discuss how to apply the truths to our lives. Authors studied have included Beth Moore, Kay Arthur, and Priscilla Shirer. Semesters generally run 11 weeks and start in January and August. The morning Bible study provides child care and is located in the Bartlett area. The evening study in located at Poplar and I-240 and does not offer child care.
