Connection, Supporting & Training Widows

Thriving Widows seeks to connect and encourage widows of all ages, as they move forward with rebuilding their lives. This ministry helps to develop meaningful and joyful Christ-centered friendships through fun activities, outings, seminars, crafting and “Sharing & Caring” classes.
