Women’s Ministry

At Maranatha Bible Church, our women’s ministry exists to help women see and know Jesus, no matter where they are in life. We believe that Christ meets us in every season—whether you’re navigating the joys of family, the challenges of life, or the complexities of personal growth. Our goal is to meet women where they are, inviting Christ into the middle of their unique circumstances.

Through gatherings, Bible studies, and intentional community, we create spaces where women can experience the love of Christ, build authentic relationships, and grow in their faith. No matter your stage in life, we are committed to walking with you as you pursue a deeper connection with Jesus, empowering you to live out your faith with confidence and grace.

What We Do

  • Mommy and Me is a new group at Maranatha designed to bring together mothers and their little ones in a warm and supportive environment. Mommy and Me is for Moms and children in preschool and younger. This is a wonderful opportunity for you and your child to connect with other moms and create lasting friendships, all while enjoying various engaging activities and discussions. We meet every Wednesday from 9:30 to 11 am in room 400 or Family Life Center.  We have open gym, playtime, and a time for moms to connect. 

  • We meet each Saturday at 9 am in the Family Life Center.  We will have a rotation of two different types of workout classes.  Drum Fitness is a fun workout for people at all different fitness levels.  You will need a large or x-large fitness ball and a water bottle. AMPD Resistance combines upbeat music with simple resistance band movements to create a fun and effective total body workout that is safe for all fitness levels.  We will have bands available for purchase, or you can order from Amazon.

  • Grace & Beauty Ministires is for any woman walking through infertility, a miscarriage, a stillbirth, or a loss of a child from birth to an adult.  They meet the first Saturday of every month from 9 am to 11 am in room 510.

  • Widows of Faith at Maranatha Bible Church provides a compassionate, faith-based community for women who have lost their spouses. Meeting regularly, this group offers a safe space to share experiences, process grief, and find encouragement through the healing journey. Rooted in biblical principles, each gathering includes prayer, discussions, and support tailored to the unique challenges faced by widows. Whether it’s navigating loneliness, rebuilding a sense of purpose, or finding hope in God’s promises, this group helps participants strengthen their faith and form lasting connections with others who understand. All widows are welcome, no matter where they are in their journey.

  • “Forgiven & Set Free” is a compassionate, confidential support ministry at Maranatha Bible Church designed for women who have experienced abortion. Led by caring, trained facilitators, this group provides a safe, non-judgmental space for healing, rooted in God’s love and forgiveness. Through guided Bible study, prayer, and fellowship, participants are invited to process their emotions, find peace, and embrace hope in Christ’s redemptive grace. With a focus on spiritual restoration, “Forgiven & Set Free” walks alongside women on their journey toward healing, offering the support needed to release shame and reclaim their identity in Christ.
