Upcoming Simply Soul Topics
"Simply Soul: A gathering of women around the Word" is a new offering from the Women's Ministry at UPC. Designed to be a no-frills, intentional study of God's Word, this monthly gathering is open to women of all ages, all walks of life, and all knowledge levels of the Bible. Through "Simply Soul" we seek to offer a deeper, more focused study of the rich truths of the Bible.
We know that the lives of women are typically over-committed and over-scheduled, so this meeting is meant to provide a place for interested women to come and study the Bible with no strings attached. No guilt. Attend only once, or every month. Come in your blue jeans or your bedroom slippers. Come well-fed and rested, or harried and carrying McDonald's drive-thru. Just come. Come with your heart open and the desire for God meet you where you are.
We hope to see you the 3rd Sunday of each month in the modular building, 6:00 - 7:30 p.m.
Women's Bible Studies
Offer the women of UPC an opportunity to dig into God's word and see how the gospel has the power to change our lives.
Our Women's Bible studies are designed to teach us more about the Lord, while also giving us the opportunity to grow in fellowship with other UPC women. Offered in the Fall and Spring, we study topics ranging from people and books of the Bible, to parenting, marriage and Biblical womanhood. Before each semester starts bible studies are advertised and sign ups take place on Sundays.
You will be amazed at how God uses that time to grow your faith and deepen your relationships with other women.

Grab & Grow
The current Grab and Grow study under way is Bravehearts. See the information below and on the linked grab n grow page for more information and to join in the fun!
The Grab and Grow Challenge gives you the opportunity to grab a few friends and committ to grow together by reading and discussing Bravehearts by Sharon Hersh. This is a book for every woman no matter what season of life you are in. Within every woman is the desire for extraordinary relationships. We crave intimacy and interconnectdness....yet most of eventually begin to wonder if we want to much. As heartbreak and disappointment take their toll, we become convinced that we want too much. And still we long for more! What is behind the yearning? Is it healthy? Is it normal? Does it have a purpose? In Bravehearts, the author will show you how your deepest longings can lead you to rich relationships and give you the courage to love with abandon.
