Women's Bible Studies – Summer 2024

Summer Bible Study

James - Room for Growth

We all have room for growth, both personally and as a faith community. In this epistle, we don’t just learn what to do, but how to do it. How do we gain wisdom? How should we view the people around us? How should we treat them? How do we deal with trials? How will our faith be seen? In the book of James, we find answers to these questions that echo both Jesus’ teaching and the book of Proverbs.

Cost: $5 for Study Guide
Format: Homework and Group Discussion

2024 Bible Study Schedule

June 12 – July 25 | James – Room for Growth (6 weeks)
September 12–November 14 | Nancy Guthrie, Son of David (10 weeks)

PRECEPT BIBLE STUDY METHOD

Romans – Freed from Sin's Penalty

All have sinned. There is none righteous. We are declared righteous by God only by faith in the blood of His Son. Romans 1-5 explains the foundational doctrines of our faith – original sin, justification, redemption, and propitiation. Gain an excellent grasp of the doctrine of salvation!

Session includes: Homework, Reading, Discussion and Prayer.

The Bible Recap is a chronological bible reading program that goes through the Bible in 1 year.

  • No charge for members of Valley Church

MOPS has given me a great opportunity to build relationships with other moms in the same season of life. Together we’re able to navigate young motherhood, marriage, and following Jesus in a fun setting.

Lindsay Morris

Valley Women’s Ministry has provided me great opportunities to connect, grow and lead. My second week at Valley, I was invited to a Bible Study and out of that study came many of my best friends!

Val Bantz

When we do Bible study together, the layering of shared life experiences and practical application that my sisters in Christ bring to the table enriches my perspective and understanding. It strengthens and encourages my faith.

The MOMCo (previously known as MOPS)

9:30–11:30 am · Two Fridays per month

September 2024–May 2025

We believe that it’s just as important for moms to grow as it is to take care of our little ones. Therefore, MOMCo exists to serve you and your kids. While your children play and learn in the care and safety of our on-site MOMCo KIDS program, MOMCo moms meet to socialize, hear from speakers, engage in creative activities and small group discussion, and share in a kid-uninterrupted breakfast and coffee break. Our hope is that you walk away refreshed, inspired, connected, and ready to brave the day.
You can expect a fun variety of snacks, curriculum, fellowship, prayer and devotions, crafts, playdates, and outside events.

Yearly dues are $60 for Valley MOMCo, $30 for childcare, and $37 The MOMCo International membership. For your convenience, you may pay for the entire year or one semester at a time.

Valley MOMCo and MOMCo International dues with no childcare – 1 semester $67
Valley MOMCo and MOMCo International dues with no childcare – 2 semesters $97
Valley MOMCo and MOMCo International dues with childcare – 1 semester $82
Valley MOMCo and MOMCo International dues with childcare – 2 semesters $127

We are excited to welcome new moms into our group for next year. Please contact The MOMCo leaders with any questions.
