For Women
To know Christ and to make Him known! Women's ministries at Immanuel exist to glorify Christ by loving and serving the women of the Church.
Our main goals are to:
Reach women with the gospel of Jesus Christ;
Provide women with opportunities for fellowship and provide encouragement for who they are in Christ;
Help women mature in their spiritual lives while pursuing a goal of Christ-likeness.

We have currently taken a break through the winter season and will resume again in the early spring. Please watch the bulletin for a start date.
Ladies' Retreat
This is a wonderful annual break to be refreshed by God. A protected time to worship, learn and benefit from encouraging friendships. Celebrating Friendships was the theme of our retreat that was held at Immanuel on February 26-27, 2010, with guest speaker, Jennie Dimkoff, from Cornerstone University. Start looking for more information about the 2011 retreat by December. If you would like to be a part of the planning team please contact Becky Lehman.
Ladies' Time Out
A day away is planned for enjoyment and time for you to spend with friends. It might be a shopping trip, a day at Shipshewana or at a Bible Conference.
Kindness Ministry
Once a year we collect needed items for the local Lakeshore Pregnancy Center and Family Hope Ministries (operated by Holland Rescue Mission) to encourage and help reach out to these local ministries.
