How much time does it take each week?
The meeting time with the group is 2 hours, but homework and assignments outside the group takes on average 1 hour each week. Some weeks it may be more and others less.
Is there childcare?
We do not offer childcare because of the variety of times that groups can meet. To participate in a group, you will need to have childcare so that the focused and intimate environment of the group can be maintained.
Can I bring my newborn?
We love babies and welcome newborns if you feel you can handle participation in the group with a baby. Some women have found this no problem and others have decided to wait a year before participating so they can really invest in the group. We just ask when the baby gets old enough to be away from mom for those 2 hours and starts becoming mobile you find childcare.
When do the groups meet?
Groups meet once a week for 2 hours throughout the course of a school year for 28 weeks starting in September and ending in April. We have had groups meeting on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays. Thursdays both AM and PM times as well as Friday AM and Sunday PM. All groups take breaks for Thanksgiving, Christmas and Spring Break.
What is the cost?
The cost is $100 to participate. There are scholarships available, so please ask!
What does the $100 cover?
This covers all your supplies for the group including a prayer notebook, 2 books, handouts and materials to organize them, and a tote bag.
Is this a Bible Study?
No this is not a Bible Study. While there will be teaching from the Bible each week, the group’s focus is how to follow Jesus in our day to day lives.
Can I participate in Bible Study and a Women’s Discipleship Group?
Absolutely! Some women find they want to take a year off from their studies to really dive deeply into a discipleship group, but many women do both at the same time.
