…helping people know God better and love him more!

Women's Ministry

Our Women's ministry is one of our strongest ministries. As we seek to help women know God better and love Him more, we offer a variety of avenues for this to happen.

Our Annual Women's Retreat is a place to get away for fun, friendship, pampering, and spiritual growth.

Mentoring and Discipleship relationships seek to help women grow in both knowledge and skills. These one-on-one relationships are tailored to the specific need that the woman seeking mentoring desires, whether it is parenting, friendship, life skills, or just Bible study.

At Blue Ridge, we have things for single women, married women, moms, mothers of young children, grandmothers...every walk of life. Come and get in on the fun.
