Women’s Ministry

Women grow and thrive best in Christ-centered community.

God created us for meaningful relationships. We intentionally pursue connection, encouragement and spiritual growth—together. We are building God’s Kingdom in our homes, offices and community. We want to see you growing deeper in your relationship with Christ and discovering your God-given purpose through authentic relationships and a vibrant faith.

Questions? Reach out to our Women’s Ministry Director, Karen Egeberg.

  • Looking to grow deeper in your faith and connect with other women?
    Women’s Bible Study is a place to explore Scripture in a meaningful way while building authentic relationships with others on the same journey.

    This Fall, we’re diving into Jen Wilkin’s study of Exodus: God of Deliverance
    In this 10-session verse-by-verse study, Jen Wilkin walks us through the first half of Exodus, revealing how Israel’s story mirrors our own. The same God who delivered His people from bondage is still delivering us today - from slavery to sin and from the pressures of this world. He invites us to lift our eyes to the promised land and worship Him as the one true God.

    Come ready to be encouraged, challenged, and transformed by God’s Word, alongside a community of women who are walking this journey together.

    Currently registration is CLOSED.

    Moms In Step is a welcoming weekly gathering designed to refresh and empower moms of all ages. Whether you're navigating the early years of motherhood or walking through new seasons of parenting, this is a space where you can be known, encouraged, and equipped.

    Our mission is to invest in moms through authentic love and community, helping them grow in their faith and identity in Christ. Through meaningful connections, biblical teaching, and shared experiences, we aim to nurture moms as they nurture their families.

    Each Thursday morning begins with a time to recharge—choose from an exercise session, quiet reflection, prayer with a mentor, or simply chatting with friends. Then, gather in small groups for heartfelt conversation, spiritual encouragement, and community.

    While you’re being refreshed, your little ones (birth through pre-K) are lovingly cared for on-site by trained staff and engaged in age-appropriate activities.

    Come as you are. Leave refreshed.
    Find friendship, grow in faith, and walk in step with the Spirit.

    Questions? Reach out to our Moms In Step Directors: Jiselle Keskitalo or Sara Ozan.

  • Meets Quarterly

    Made+Known is a beautiful part of our women’s ministry at The Highlands, created to glorify Christ by sharing the stories of His work in our lives. It’s a space where women gather to connect, be encouraged, and see how God is moving through real, everyday experiences.

    Each gathering includes:

    • Time for fellowship and connection

    • A short devotional to center our hearts

    • A personal story shared by a woman from our church family

    At our next gathering, we’re excited to welcome Lindsey Bomgren as she shares her journey and how God has been at work in her life.

    🕖 7:00 PM
    📍 At The Highlands

    No registration is needed—just come as you are and feel free to bring a friend or two.
