Women's Ministry

Women and Families Worker

We are currently without a Woman and Families Worker, but are in the process of advertising for one. Because of this, much of the information below is out of date: however it gives an idea of the sort of actvities that the Church offers the women of our congregation and wider community. We pray that the role will soon be filled and we can restart some of this exciting work.

Welcome

The church is made up of individuals from different backgrounds and different walks of life.

We value and love women from all walks of life here at Dowanvale.

Therefore we feel it is important that we provide opportunities for women to get involved with the life of the church.

It is Important that...

women are fed spiritually so we welcome all women to come along and join us for our Ladies Bible Study, the 1st  and 3rd Tuesday of each month, at 7:30pm, via zoom.  Don’t worry if you can come one week but not the next, the studies are designed in such a way that you can dip in and out, if need be. There is always an opportunity to catch up and chat with one another at the beginning and end of these meetings…fellowship is important to us!  

women have an opportunity to communicate and build relationships with one another. Whilst this has been tricky during Covid, Lord willing we will have the opportunity in coming months to hold more in person events, providing opportunities to deepen relationships.  Currently we have a ladies Whatsapp Group so that we can stay in contact with one another.  If you would like to be part of this group please let us know. Lord willing, we hope to organise more social events so that women can meet together and fellowship together in person.  Nothing beats a good old cup of tea and a face to face conversation!

women have an opportunity to pray together. If you are interested in being part of a Prayer Triplet, whereby 3 females within the church are grouped together to form a prayer network, please get in touch.  Prayer requests shared within the triplet, stay within the triplet, so no need to worry about confidentiality.  It is entirely up to the triplet how they go about things…prayer requests can be shared via Whatsapp, prayer triplets can meet together on zoom to pray, or can catch up in person for a time of prayer and fellowship.  It is such an encouragement and a privilege to be able to share with sisters in Christ, in prayer.

women who work or have family commitments are included and feel part of things. Often those who work long hours or have young children are unable to join for the likes of our Bible Studies.  We totally understand that.  Therefore notes are sent out after our Bible Studies and can be read at a time that is convenient.  Hopefully these concise notes provide some form of encouragement and challenge to our ladies who are busy working or looking after family members.      

women have an opportunity to serve. We all have different skills, talents and interests.  It is important that all women have the opportunity to serve and get involved in the life of the church.  Nobody should feel under any pressure, but everyone should know that there is part for them to play in building up God’s Kingdom.  There are many ways to serve.  If you want to get involved but are unsure how to, please speak to us

Women & Families Worker, Dowanvale Free Church

We are aware that churches can be confusing and sometimes it can be difficult to know where you fit in or how to get involved. We would love to help. The Christian journey is not to be walked alone and at Dowanvale we love to share our lives together. There is plenty of opportunity for spiritual growth through Sunday teaching, the midweek meeting, home groups, discipleship pairings and serving the Lord in an outreach ministry.
