Monday Intergenerational Women’s Bible Study. This study meets every Monday throughout the year at a private home in Portsmouth. Members are currently studying A Woman of Love: The Story of Ruth by Dee Brestin.
Cancer Sewing Group. Join this lively group as they enjoy great conversation while busily converting used button-down shirts into hospital jonnies for underprivileged cancer patients. The teapot is ready!
These ladies gather every Monday in the Hometime room (from September through June) to turn donated shirts into “jonnies” that are sent to hospitals in less-developed countries. If you are handy with a needle and would like to provide a bit of comfort to those in need, please see Marge White.

Secret Pal Club. Several ladies of the church have secret pals for whom they pray daily and choose a Christmas gift.
