We meet on Tuesday mornings from 9:00 - 11:00AM for fellowship and singing, with our primary focus on studying God’s word. Childcare is available (ages 0-5). There is also a Ministry Mondays women’s group that meets Monday evenings! (No childcare on Mondays)

Our scheduled sessions are: Fall/Winter (September to December) and Winter/Spring (January to May). Women of all ages are welcome. We also welcome ladies from the community, so bring a friend!

Please get in touch with Pinky or Kathy if you have questions.

Ministry Mondays

6:30PM - 8:00PM

Monday Evenings

Ministry Mondays is a Monday evening women’s Bible study designed for those who want to grow deeper in Scripture and in their life as disciples of Jesus. Beginning in September, this group will explore Whole & Watered by Jackie Frary, a 90-day devotional designed to help women slow down, soften, and reconnect with God through the Scriptures.

Our first gathering will be Monday, September 14, 2026, held in the Commons Room at Bethany. This evening will offer a chance to connect, ask questions, and get oriented to the study.

If you are unable to attend the first meeting but plan to participate, please email the group leader, Jackie Mullen or Joanne Grzybinski, to share your interest and receive information about study materials.

Please note: Childcare is not provided for the Monday evening group.

Registration

All women’s groups have a $20 registration fee, which covers all costs and materials.

All ladies are welcome regardless of their financial situation.

Please email Pinky or Kathy if you need any assistance.

A Bible study unlike any other - you will engage with the amazing ways God weaves the lives of women in Scripture into the redemption story. Brave and Beloved is a beautiful 20-lesson Bible study surveying 30 key women in the Bible, from the more widely known Eve and Ruth to the less often studied Deborah and Jael. This fresh Bible study truly illuminates how God’s design for womanhood welcomes women from all walks of life. You will be inspired to dig deeper into God’s word and see His heart for women and their role in his amazing plans for redemption in a brand new light.

Now and Not Yet:  Discovering 6 Ways God is More Faithful Than You Know

By Ruth Chou

Have you ever wondered if your current season has a purpose? Do you ever feel like your present moment is so far from where you really long to be, but the answer to all your prayers is "not yet"?  This six-session video Bible study (video access included) teaches you how to live in the present and trust in God's faithfulness—even while hoping for the future.  Now and Not Yet Bible Study explores six profound ways God makes His faithfulness known in the biblical stories of Abraham, Joseph, Israel, Hannah, and the Apostle Paul. As you encounter God through the pages of His Word, you'll see His ways, His character, His purposes, and His faithfulness in the lives of His people.  And the more you understand God's ways, the more you will discover that He's just as faithful in your life right now—even more than you know.  Included with your study book is an individual access code to six streaming video teachings by the author, Ruth Chou.

Engaging God’s Word - A Bible study on the book of Genesis

Engage Bible Study Series from Community Bible Study

Genesis serves as the grand gateway into God's Word: Creation, rebellion, judgment, and forgiveness are showcased.  Genesis unfolds the remarkable plan of a loving Creator God who designed us with a purpose.  It is the beginning of a story of redemption spanning from Genesis to Revelation.  It is the foundation of our understanding of God, humanity, sin, and salvation.  It is the beginning of the story of God's people, which means it is the beginning of our story. This study will be a deep dive into Genesis covering both fall and spring semesters at Sweet Tuesdays. 

This study continues through next year (September 2026 to May 2027)
