    • Ephesians
      A "no-fluff" 12-week study of the Book of Ephesians for women who desire to be encouraged in the Lord, look at their relationship with God in a new way, discover what this new life in Christ is, and how to face the struggles of life through Christ's power.We will be studying the six chapters of Ephesians, using various translations (ESV, NIV, NKJV, etc.) and commentaries (Ephesians by Dr. Chapell, Adam Clarke, Warren Wiersbe’s Commentary, etc.) as resources, taking one-half of each chapter per session. Related scriptures from other books of the Bible than Ephesians will also be used. Led by Pat Hampton.
    • “I Peter: A Living Hope in Christ” study by Jen Wilkin
      Our inheritance through Christ is imperishable, undefiled, and unfading. In 1 Peter, a man of faith and flaws and eyewitness to the life of Christ challenges us to look beyond our current circumstances to a future inheritance. He shares his concerns on big picture issues for the early church, describes believers’ true identity in Christ, and ultimately helps readers discover what it means to experience the Living Hope they have in Christ. Key themes of humility, submission, and identity in Christ guide the study of 1 Peter as participants are challenged to read the book in its entirety each week. Teaching videos are key to the understanding of this study. Led by Dixie Zietlow.
    • “Entrusted: A Study of 2 Timothy” by Beth Moore
      We were never meant to take this journey of faith alone or in secret. God has entrusted us with the great and mighty gift of the gospel, something too precious and life-giving to keep to ourselves. In this Bible study, Beth will encourage you to guard what God has entrusted to you, further His kingdom by sharing Christ with others, and pour into future generations just as Paul once mentored Timothy. Because in this journey of joy and hardship, we need each other to stay the course and live lives of faithfulness. Led by Normi Howard and Val Bergia.
    • Side by Side
      A ministry to women who are married to medical and dental students, residents, fellows, as well as staff physicians and dentists. We are a non-denominational, Bible-based ministry that is evangelical in nature. We seek to encourage, support, and minister to women in medical marriages through fellowship, Bible study, and prayer.
    • Quilting & More
      Quilting and More is a close “knit” group of ladies of all ages who meet for fellowship, encouragement, and prayer. Each morning we have a devotion and time of sharing show-and-tell projects followed by a project demonstration or work day. While quilting is the focus, there are ladies who knit, crochet, and craft. We find joy in doing community projects, taking field trips, and a yearly retreat to Shipshewana, Indiana.
    • MOPS (Mothers of Preschoolers
      We are on a mission to celebrate motherhood. We build circles of women who love each other like family, because raising humans is beautiful and hard, and having each other to lean on is life-giving. Peoria MOPS meets on Tuesdays from 9:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. We enjoy breakfast together, speakers, crafts, and kid-free conversations. The alternate Tuesdays are optional Bible study days-a chance to dig into the Bible and get to know your small group even better! While the moms are together, their children, infant through pre-K, are cared for in our KIDventure program. We also offer a fantastic program for homeschooled children.
