Rev. Judy Johnson
I greet you in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and the Women of FAME. Please join us in worship where the hearts of women are open to everyone, committed to fellowship, worship and praising God.
The women are both encouraged and equipped to serve the Lord Jesus Christ and His body of believers through relevant teachings from His Word, preaching and prayer.
The women’s ministry goal is that every woman walk in a manner worthy of her calling and purpose in which God called her. The FAME women are committed to a daily prayer life, and lifting our hearts and extending our hands to serve the community.
Our desire is that women connect with God on a deeper level, whether they’re just beginning the journey with Him, or have known Him forever! FAME is place for you to experience community with other women and develop deeper friendships. God has designed the women of FAME to be in community with each other, and in a close loving, exciting relationship with Him. And as we draw closer to Him, He will draw closer to us and fill us with his joy and peace.
