"Examine me, Lord, and put me to the test; refine my mind and my heart." Psalm 26:2

Purpose: To train and grow women through Biblical truth, using mentoring, discipleship, study of God's Word (both independently and with other women), prayer and fellowship.

Emphasis:  The underlying emphasis of women's ministries functions will be to promote, encourage and build mentoring between women as laid out in Titus 2 (younger women in the Lord connected to wiser, older women in the Lord).

Authority:  Women's Ministry leadership submits to the authority of the elders of San Tan Bible Church.  Bible studies, programs, events and potential leadership are presented to the elders for their approval.

Each meeting consists of a fun ice breaker, worship through singing, time in God's Word, prayer and a service project.  We meet 6:00pm-8:00pm on the 4th Sunday of the month August-April (no meeting in December).
