The Alpha course is a series of conversations that explore the basics of the Christian faith in a relaxed, non-threatening environment. It's designed for those who are curious about Christianity, don't go to church, or are new to the faith. The course includes talks, discussions, and opportunities to connect with others, and will be on Tuesday nights @ 6:30-8:30 pm from September 9th to November 4th.

Come spend a creative evening at this printmaking gathering! We’ll provide soup to share, and you're welcome to bring a side dish if you'd like. Together, we’ll explore simple printmaking techniques, and you'll have the chance to create your very own stamp. No experience needed—just come as you are and enjoy food, fellowship, and creativity. Adults only, please.

Be sure to dress with art-making in mind, as things may get a little inky! It's also a good idea to come with an idea for your stamp ahead of time or even bring a printed image or design that inspires you. (Tracing is an easy approach, just keep the image smaller than 3x5 in if you will want to trace it)

Join us for a cozy evening of fun, fellowship, and books. Bring your favorite chili topping and one or more books to exchange! Chili will be provided (regular, and a vegan gluten free option)

Join the Makers Ladies Community for our beloved Favorite Things Party!

Here’s how it works:
✨ Bring a snack or beverage to share.
✨ Bring three of the same item that you personally love — your favorite thing.
(Examples: three succulents from your garden, three of your favorite pen brand, three copies of a poem you love, or three used copies of a book you adore.)

At the party, we’ll mingle over food and drinks, introduce ourselves, and share why we chose our “favorite thing.” Then, we’ll swap — you’ll leave your items on the table and choose three different favorites to take home.

By the end of the night, you’ll have:
 Three new treasures from new friends
 A full heart from shared stories
 A deeper connection with Makers ladies!

It’s fun, meaningful, and one of the best ways we have found to get to know each other. We’d love for you to join us!

[This event is for adults only]
