Women's Ministry

The Smyrna Presbyterian Women's Ministry exists to support and encourage our church's mission to: KNOW and worship the Triune God, GROW in the covenant family of God as reformed disciples, and SHOW forth the love of Christ as servants and witnesses all for the glory of God.

It is our desire to create space for women in our congregation to connect with each other while equipping them to know God through His Word, participate in Sunday worship, bring courage to one another through fellowship events, and proclaim the excellencies of Christ who called us out of darkness and into His marvelous light in our homes and spheres of individual influence.

The SPC Women’s Ministry is open to all women in the church and Smyrna community. We offer weekly and monthly Bible study options during the course of a year, along with regular fellowship opportunities.

"Open my eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of your law." 

PSALM 119:18

It is our hope that all of the women in our congregation will be able to study together, even if not able to attend every meeting. We pray that this mutual study will overflow into our conversations and prayers with one another as we practice churchlife both in our church building and in our local community.

"SHE IS CLOTHED WITH STRENGTH AND DIGNITY; SHE CAN LAUGH AT THE DAYS TO COME."

Proverbs 31:25

BIBLE STUDY CIRCLES
{MONTHLY MEET-UP}

Bible Study Circles cover a year-long approach to growing as a life-long learner of God's Word. From September to May, we give women the opportunity to do a self-paced study with monthly gatherings for fellowship over the learning materials. 

We currently offer two Bible Study Circle groups:
1. First Thursday at 6:30 PM in the church library.
• Dinner and childcare provided for ages 3+
• Facilitators: Meredith Myers and Amy Stiles
2. First Saturday at 9:00 AM in the church library.
• Facilitators: Pat Jackson and Ann Marie Kelly

For the 2024-2025 year, the Circles will go through Assurance of Faith by Joel Beeke. With each Circle meeting, this year-long study will be enriched by a brief video teaching followed by discussion and prayer.

No prior registration or study is required to participate.

WOMEN OF THE WORD
{WEEKLY MEET-UP}

Women of the Word is a weekly, in-depth Bible study open to all women inside and outside the SPC family. Each Fall and Spring, we work through an expositional study of the Bible, focusing on a particular chapter or passage each week.

Women of the Word uses a layered approach to the study of God's holy Word. The layers include individual homework, discussion groups, as well as a teaching time to culminate learnings and answer any lingering questions about the passage.

We currently offer two meeting times:
1. In-Person group meets on Tuesdays at 10:00 AM in the choir room. 
• Childcare provided for infants and up.
2. Virtual group meets on Tuesdays at 7:30 PM via Zoom.

Tea & Testimonies

Tea and Testimonies is an afternoon gathering once a year where we have the privilege of hearing the testimonies of God's faithfulness in the lives of a few of our sisters at Smyrna Presbyterian Church. There are light refreshments offered and time for fellowship as well.

Women's Retreat

Each year all the women of SPC are invited for a refreshing weekend away. This overnight experience is a great time for fellowship, rest, and fun. Each year has a special theme and guest speaker.

*Day passes available for those unavailable to attend the whole time.
