The purpose of Women's Ministry is to meet the spiritual, physical, and emotional needs of women at
Arlington Heights United Methodist Church and within our community. This ministry is designed to encourage women to grow in their faith in Christ, to develop and strengthen intimate friendships with other women, and to provide opportunities to serve and reach our community for Christ.
Be a part of God's work!
If you'd like to be a part of these ministries, watch for details in church publications.
We invite you to be a part of God's work to bring women together for service, spiritual growth, and
just plain fun!

RED
HAT SOCIETY CHAPTER
|
Heights
Hatters! AHUMC's
chapter of the Red Hat
Society is 25 ladies strong and becoming
an awesome support group
to laugh with and feel
what's it's like to belong
to a group of loving
sisters who try to dispel
the notion that women our
age are old!
"Welcome to the place where there is fun after fifty (and before) for women of all walks of life.
We believe silliness is the comedy relief of life and, since we are all in it together, we might as well join red-gloved hands and go for the gusto together. Underneath the frivolity, we share a bond of affection, forged by common life experiences and a genuine enthusiasm for wherever life takes us
next." |

LADIES BIBLE STUDY |
 |
|
For several years now, women of all ages gather weekly during the spring and fall to participate in a Bible or book study. This group usually numbers anywhere from
12-18 women. They conclude the spring and fall terms with a luncheon.
Melissa Nichols
facilitates our Ladies Bible Study,
Mondays at 12:00
Noon in the main Library.
Pre-registration is not required. Just bring your Bible, and
join us as we explore what
God's Word has to say to
women today. |

STERLING
SERVICE TEA
|
|
 |
|
The
purpose of the Sterling Service Tea Ministry is to serve the
spiritual, social and inspirational needs of our sisters who
have been touched by cancer.
A
celebration of tea is an opportunity to retreat from the hurried
pace of the world and enjoy conversation and beautifully
prepared foods in a gracious setting. Each
visit with our circle of friends
should be a new
adventure. We will
create a different menu at
each tea which will be
served to you on silver
trays and antique dishes,
dressed with fresh flowers
and accompanied by
soothing classical music. |

AHUMC's Women's Ministry
sponsors two Women's
Retreats annually; a
daytime retreat and a
weekend away.
Exciting speakers and
leaders are chosen for
these events who will
challenge us to face life positively
and in fun, also leading
us to look within ourselves
to find the Personal
Savior dwelling there!
Watch the church calendar
and announcements for news
of the next scheduled
retreat. You won't
want to miss the
opportunity to bond with
your Sisters in the Faith
Community of AHUMC! |

|
| Women
at Arlington Heights UMC
have a long and solid
tradition of being in
ministry to one another
and to the community in
which they live. We don't
need to create a new or
special venue for our
Sisters in Christ to enjoy
the beautiful gift of
friendship and
service! We just
want to make it official
with this new
"program".
Join us as we celebrate
the women God created us
to be! |
