Women's Ministries

Women are vital to the ministries of the church. The early church was radical in that it encouraged women to learn about theology and Jesus and deemed them as equal image-bearers of God, with distinct roles.

At Island Christian Church, we want women to embrace their role in the church, grow in their knowledge of the Bible and their love for Jesus, and connect and support each other. We have opportunities uniquely focused on women and their needs so that you can find a place to plug in and grow in your faith!

“A woman who fears the Lord is to be praised.” Proverbs 31:30

 

 

Women’s Bible Study

Women’s Bible study is available throughout the school year on Tuesday mornings 9:30 - 11:15 AM, and Wednesday evenings, 7 - 8:30 PM

 

 

Retreats

Once a year all women (18+) are invited to our Women's Weekend Away. A women’s retreat is a time of refreshment with friends, old and new, to disconnect from daily responsibilities and connect more deeply with the LORD and each other.
 
Our retreats are held at Harvey Cedars Bible Conference Center - located on Long Beach Island, NJ, between the beautiful Barnegat Bay and the Atlantic Ocean. The facilities at Harvey Cedars provide for a relaxing weekend and include hotel-style rooms, a gift store, an indoor pool, and more!

 

 

Embrace Grace, Embrace life, and surrendering the secret

As a single young woman, an unplanned pregnancy can be scary. Maybe you feel lost, confused, and alone.  Embrace Grace supports single, expecting moms, while Embrace Life provides guidance for single moms with infants and toddlers.

Surrendering the Secret offers a confidential Bible study to help women heal from the pain of abortion and find freedom from shame. Those interested can sign up or email for more details on upcoming groups.
