WOMEN@HT
We love to help women seek God and grow in faith together. To complement the relationships and personal support offered through our Clusters of Small Groups there are a wide range of opportunities for women at HT to deepen friendships, learn together and encourage one another.
“But blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord, whose confidence is in him. They will be like a tree planted by the water that sends out its roots by the stream. It does not fear when heat comes; its leaves are always green. It has no worries in a year of drought and never fails to bear fruit.”
Jeremiah 17 v7-8
Our Vision
As we looked to God for His leading and direction for our women’s ministry at HT He graced us with a series of clear pictures: women walking together by a riverbank; a tree with deep roots; a strong beautiful tree providing protection; birds flocking to the tree top for protection and feeding; and sweet spring rain. He also gave us two passages of Scripture that confirmed these pictures were from Him: Psalm 1 v1-3 and Jeremiah 17 v7-8
“Blessed is the one who does not walk in step with the wicked or stand in the way that sinners take or sit in the company of mockers, but whose delight is in the law of the Lord, and who meditates on his law day and night.
That person is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither – whatever they do prospers.”
Psalm 1 v1-3
SO WHAT DO WE DO?
Throughout the year we offer a range of activities from regular groups (see below for more details) to one off events such as breakfasts, boogie nights, pub nights, and craft evenings. HT is involved in various networks including New Wine, Spring Harvest, Naturally Supernatural and Soul Survivor. We encourage women to take advantage of the special meetings and resources they offer. We also arrange our own local HT ‘awaydays’ for all the women in the HT church community in order that we might take some time out from busy schedules and spend time in worship, learning and community.
REGULAR GROUPS
REVIVE BIBLE STUDY GROUP
Every Friday morning (term time only)
10am – 11:30am
Revive is a group for women of all ages where we journey together in our faith, worship and study the Bible together, pray for and support each other. An oasis in the week for relaxation and a time of seeking God amidst the pressures of daily life.
We meet on Friday mornings, upstairs in the HT lounge area. The first half hour is a chance to drink tea/coffee, eat cake and have a natter! At 10:30am we start our time of worship, bible-study and prayer. It doesn’t matter where you are in your journey of faith or how much (or little) you know about the Bible. Revive is a safe place where we can learn together, ask questions and explore possible answers, laugh together, and quite often cry together! And to put all that faith and learning into action a group of Revive women currently volunteer at Aylesbury Foodbank once a month.
CREATIVE CAFE
In HT Foyer, Friday Mornings
10:30am – 12:30pm
Through Creative Café we seek to encourage creativity and community. You can bring your own craft project or try your hand at something new. A chance to enjoy conversation over cake and coffee whilst getting creative with a craft project. Once a year we hold Creative Café AfterHours on a Friday evening in the foyer space. A chilled out evening with a chance to try out some craft activities over some Friday night treats.
