Our goals for women's ministry at Christ Church are:
· to provide and develop opportunities for teaching, testimony, fellowship, prayer and care which will affirm women in who they are in Christ.
· to encourage an authentic and consistent life of discipleship, spiritual growth and outreach, as women support and encourage one another.
· to resource women to take up God-given roles and responsibilities at home and in the work-place.
· to enjoy ourselves in the process...!

· Saturday 4th February - FAIR COP! Women's Breakfast, 8.30am - downstairs at Christ Church.
Speaker: Jill Kells, Detective Inspector within Avon and Somerset Constabulary, based in Serious Crime in South Gloucestershire and Licensed Lay Minister at Pip 'n' Jay. In spite of her initial intention to serve God in the church or abroad, she was called to the police force. She is strongly convinced that God values our daily work, whatever the role.

· Weekend Away: 9th - 11th March. This year we are going to Hebron Hall near Dinas Powys, within the beautiful Vale of Glamorgan. Anita Cleverly has agreed to be our speaker, and we are very much looking forward to hearing from her on the theme of the Promises of God, looking at the book of Esther.
