Women's 246 Groups
Hi Ladies!
Our desire is for the women of FCC to gather together in a group for a collective meal and leave with deeper relationships, insights about themselves, and a better understanding of the love of God. Jesus was extremely relational, and we want to follow his example.
The name for 246 groups comes from Acts 2:46, "Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts." We want the women of FCC to come together, break bread, and grow in glad and sincere hearts as you discover more about Jesus and yourself.
If you would like to be a part of a 246 group, please fill out the form to be placed in a group based on your availability. These 2 hours once a month can be a big investment in your future, your relationships, and your own walk with God.
If you have any questions, please email Sandy.
God Bless,
Sandy Darnell

Ultimately, couples will gain the tools necessary to connect or reconnect emotionally to help bring about positive changes in their relationship.
The cost is $250 per couple which is really a small amount to invest in your marriage. (If there are those with financial difficulties, please reach out to the church).
The workshop begins at 5:30 on Friday evenings and will go until 8:30. It will resume on Saturday morning at 8:30 and end at 4:00 pmin the afternoon.
Following the workshop, there will be opportunity for couples to participate in a follow-up small group study for a few weeks to help reinforce the principles learned at the workshop.
