Women's Ministries
What’s for Women at FBNV?
Ladies Sunday School
Every Sunday morning at 9:30 AM, the Ladies’ Class meets to study and learn from God’s Word in order that we might “grow in grace and in the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ” (2 Peter 3:18). Each woman is equipped with either a Bible study book or a lesson sheet that she may work on during the week. On Sundays, we gather to review what we are learning and to discuss questions and issues that are relevant to our lives as women. We also foster an attitude of genuine caring for one another as we share prayer requests and praises, as God answers our prayers. For women who prefer to be in a class with their husbands, there is also a Crusaders class taught by our Pastor.
ACLF
If you’re wondering what ACLF is, the letters stand for “All-Church Ladies Fellowship.” ACLF is a ministry that welcomes all women to attend. ACLF meets regularly, usually on Tuesday mornings at 9 AM. One main focus of this group is to be acquainted with the needs of missionaries and to work on various projects (hand-crafts or otherwise) that are of help to them as they minister to people around the world. ACLF also sponsors special ladies’ events in our church. For example, ACLF puts on a yearly Christmas tea which all ladies of the church are invited to attend.
Northeast Fellowship Ladies’ Advance
Our church joins in fellowship with other area and state-wide Regular Baptist churches. Once a year, usually in September, a large conference is held for women from across our state, and many of our church ladies attend. The Ladies Advance is held locally at First Baptist Church in Johnson City, NY. This conference is intended to strengthen each woman’s walk with God as she listens to a speaker teach God’s Word, attends workshops on various issues of interest to women, and fellowships with other Christian women. It’s a unique experience and a great time of blessing!
Opportunities for Women
As members of our church, there are many ways for women to serve the Lord and others. Such skills as singing, decorating, cooking, organizing, and teaching children can be used for the glory of God by any female member who is led by Him to serve in these ways.
