Women's Ministries

How would you describe yourself? A wife? A mother? A working woman? A homemaker? A retiree?  A sister?  A daughter?  No matter.  God sees you as a beautiful and spiritual woman and He hungers for a relationship with you. Women who want to study God's word and discover what He has prepared in advance for us will find friendship, acceptance and community in these cross generational groups. Women will find support for one another here as they grow together in the Lord. The current groups and times they are meeting are below. For more information on any of the groups and what they are currently studying, please contact Myrna Lorenz at 317.535.8555 ext. 1303 or myrnal@mtuaburnumc.org.

Women’s Bible Study Opportunities for Winter 2011

Moms ‘n More: For mothers on the go!                                                                      
Beginning Sept. 8.  Thursday mornings  9:30–11:30 a.m.

Our study this fall will be from a book we heard about at the Women of Faith Conference,  Sheila Walsh’s new book “In the Shelter of God’s Promises “.  Sometimes we look at our circumstances and we get lost in them. We may be tempted to think that this is all there is.  But, God has not forgotten you. He makes promises to you that he will keep. And, God’s promises will never fail you.  God will sustain you for a lifetime.  Come join us as we search scripture for what God has promised, what those promises mean, and how encounters with Christ are the eternal fulfillment of His unrelenting commitment to us.   Sign up at the Welcome Center beginning Sunday August 28th.


United by Grace:

Get to Know Jesus, The One And Only
A Women’s Study Beginning in January 2012

How did it feel to walk the dusty roads of the Holy Land with the incarnate Son of God? What was He like to know personally? Can you imagine placing your feet in the sand beside His, walking where He left footprints, hearing Him actually speak?

Come join with us as we study Beth Moore’s  Jesus, The One and Only.  It will be a life-changing journey we begin at the remarkable announcement of birth of the Savior, through the years of Jesus’ ministry on earth, on the road as He sets his face toward the cross and to his victory over the grave.  You will be blessed by participating in this study at this time of year, as it coincides with Lent and ends just before Easter.

There are three study times available, beginning the week of January 9, 2012

Tuesdays          9:30 am

Tuesdays          7:00 pm

Wednesdays    9:30 am

Study guides are available currently for purchase for $16.  Please contact Myrna Lorenz to sign up or to purchase a study guide.

 

Is UMW Calling You?
Are you looking for a way to connect to other women? Do you want to know women who share your beliefs, your interests, your love of the Lord? Do you want to have a little fun? Consider joining one of Mt. Auburn’s women’s circles through United Methodist Women.

Mt. Auburn currently has three different circles. Besides organizing events for the entire church, like the UMW Mission Breakfasts or Women’s Retreat, each UMW group generally meets once a month in member homes or at the church. There is fellowship and generally a program or Bible study at each meeting. Each circle supports various mission projects as well as supporting missions of the larger organized unit of UMW through annual pledges.  Below are dates and times each circle meets.

  • Agape Circle—Meets 10 a.m., 3rd Tuesday of each month
  • Friendship Circle—Meets 7 p.m., 2nd Friday of each month (no meetings in June, July and August)
  • Shalom Circle—Meets 7 p.m., 2nd Monday of each month

Women’s Quilting Group
If quilting is your thing, join this group! They meet the second and fourth Tuesday of each month from 9:30 a.m.-2:30 p.m. in the library. They make beautiful quilts that are given to new parents, shut-ins, and others that need a warm reminder that they are loved.  Contact Pat Hertel for more information (885-7179)
