But in your hearts honor Christ the Lord as holy, always being prepared to make a defense to anyone who asks you for a reason for the hope that is in you; yet do it with gentleness and respect…
1 Peter 3:15
Whether you are new to the church or a longtime member, no matter where you are in your walk with the Lord, there is a place for you to study, serve, gather, and grow within this active and vibrant community of women. Small groups and Bible studies, monthly events and fellowship groups, service opportunities within the church and out in our city, as well as an annual weekend retreat…these are just a few of the ways you can get involved in Women’s Ministry at the Advent. Our hope is for each woman to be involved in meaningful ways that will challenge, equip, and encourage her until the good work our Lord has begun is brought to completion at the day of Christ Jesus.
Please let me know how I can help.
In Christ,
Leslie Housman
Director of Women’s Ministries
Join The Middle Tuesday, October 3 from 6:00-7:30 p.m. at the home of Katrina Logan, 2320 Crest Rd, 35223. Elizabeth Fitzpatrick will share a word about the joys and challenges of being a mother of the groom or bride. The Middle is a fellowship group for women in the “middle” stages of life, women who find themselves beginning to ask, “Am I too old to wear this?” women somewhere between getting children to college and caring for aging parents. Come casual (we mean it!). Let Elizabeth Fitzpatrick or Leigh Whatley know you can come.
Over the years, many of us had the good fortune of hearing Pam Huff share other people’s stories on the news. Now come hear Pam (Huff) Simpson share, “My Story: How a Type ‘A’ Finds Perfect Strength in Weakness.” Following Pam’s talk, she will moderate a discussion among her surgeon, radiologist, and oncologist. Please join us Thursday, October 12, from 6:30-8:00 p.m. at Cranmer House in Homewood, 2814 Linden Avenue. Light refreshments will be served.
There is no cost for this event, but please register as space is limited. To let us know you’re coming, follow the link below, log into your Realm account, or contact Janet Dozier.

Of old you laid the foundation of the earth, and the heavens are the work of your hands. They will perish, but you will remain; they
He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, that we might die to sin and live to righteousness. By his wounds you
