Women’s Bible Study

One of the core programs of our Women’s Ministry at Springvale is our weekly Bible studies. These studies are an opportunity for women in our church and in our community to come together to dig deeply into the word of God. The mornings are designed to allow women to minister to one another through discussion of relevant and biblically based topics. To share, to learn, and to pray together.

Table Talk

God calls us to share our lives, our experience and our perspectives with other women. Table Talk is a time of intentional, topic-rich conversation in an intimate interactive format. Join us as we act out the calling of mentorship, as iron sharpens iron. Come ready to listen to other women’s thoughts and discuss your own in very small groups on two current, relevant topics.

Topic 1 – Leaning in When it Gets Uncomfortable

It is difficult to admit we judge and dodge when there are people who are experiencing “mess”, especially when we don’t know them. How do we extend hospitality for those who feel unwelcome? How do we stay more open and available, stepping in boldly to uncomfortable situations, knowing God will do the work? Tracie Sindrey introduces this topic and shares her perspective on how we may choose to run in and/or stay in when it gets messy.

Topic 2 – Silence and Solitude: 2 Good Habits We Tend to Avoid

For those of us who are trapped by “busy”, who work or care full-time for people in our lives, how do we make room for something important that is so time consuming? What are the gifts we miss in these habits of rest? Can we have one without the other? Amanda Simpson reflects and shares her perspective.

REVIVE

REVIVE, is a ministry that challenges women to seek God with determined purpose; to awaken a generation of women who really, authentically believe what we SAY we believe – and are ready to live transformed, for His Glory.

This  year our Revive Ministry is focused on the theme of “These Silent Days” Join us for the second talk on this concept called These Silent Days – The Whisper of God. The prophet Elijah stood on the mountain – waiting for God’s presence. A powerful wind, earthquake and fire, each in turn passed by – but God was not in them. But then… he heard a voice of gentle silence. How do we recognize God’s whisper when life is going 100 miles an hour or we are drowning in anxiety or faced with unmet expectations? We seek and desire the mighty presence but often feel the deafening silence. But God IS speaking, and his voice is powerful, life-giving and transformative. God’s whisper meets us in our valleys of life; guiding, correcting, challenging and lifting us up. God uses the silence to remind us of his promises and that his Word never fails.

Psalm 40

We all have a story to tell. Our testimony is sharing our life’s experiences; the good, the bad and the ugly and how God intercedes to give us a new story through Jesus. A new hymn of praise, a new voice with which we worship and honour Him! Psalm 40 is a place to for women to share and hear stories of God restoring brokenness to beauty and beyond. God doesn’t want our perfection He wants our heart and our voice. Psalm 40:2-3 “He lifted me out of the slimy pit, out of the mud and mire; he set my feet on a rock and gave me a firm place to stand. He put a new song in my mouth, a hymn of praise to our God.”

Gentle

In 2024/2025 Springvale Women will be looking at some difficult cultural issues through a biblical perspective, while also challenging ourselves to filter our responses through love, so that the church is both a safe place for hurting people to land, and also a place that affirms the objective truth of God’s Word. This is the emergence of “Gentle”, a series of talks that are intended to explore the untalked about, the uncomfortable, the things that separate us; in an effort to heal and help and grow together – towards Jesus.

Sister Social

Sister Social is a generational outreach event for all women. Invite a friend, daughter, niece, neighbour or anyone you’d like to spend some special time with!
