If your young child needs attention during worship, live broadcasts of each service are available in the Williams Center & the Nursing Mothers & Infants Room off the Williams Center.
GIVE GIRLS THE GIFT OF EDUCATION The first witnesses to Christ’s resurrection were women— women who had come to serve. In communities around the world, women seek new opportunities to serve and use their gifts for God’s purpose. It seems appropriate that our Easter offering this year supports the enormous potential of young women.
Forman Christian College Pakistan
When women have the opportunity to become who God created them to be, it not only changes their lives for the better, but the lives of all those around them, too.
