women

Our joy is to connect women of every age and walk of life to a place where you can thrive in your relationship with God through community. We love that many of our groups are intergenerational, where stories are shared across generations that offer opportunities to connect in organic relationships.
We provide a variety of Community Groups and encourage everyone at COS to find a group where they can be known. These small gatherings exist to engage people in authentic relationships and create an environment that fosters spiritual growth through application of the Scriptures and doing life together.

For those who enjoy Bible studies, you might also consider our Joy and Free Friday studies, large group gatherings that are more structured with teaching, and provide additional connections with other women.

Our hope is that you’ll find a place to connect through authentic relationships that spur you to become more and more like Christ. Please contact info@coswayne.org with any questions about groups or studies.

WORTH IT

What Is Worth it?

2023 Dates – Begins the week of March 13th through April 13th
Worth It is a series of classroom experiences designed for women who have experienced sexual trauma from exploitation, trafficking or prostitution. The goal is to help participants connect with area service providers, maintain sobriety, and ultimately break the cycle of exploitation. Worthwhile Wear sponsors the program and partners with local churches who will offer Christ-filled hospitality to participants. The program covers twelve full-day sessions over a period of 4-5 weeks.

How can you serve Worth it women?

Meals – provide either breakfast or lunch for 14-15 people; deliver by 8:45 am for breakfast or 11:45 am for lunch. Meals can be purchased or made and dropped off in the morning.

Serving – set-up and clean-up meals; and sit and interact with the women during mealtimes. For breakfast arrive at 8:45 am; lunch arrive at 11:45 am

Prayer for the Trafficked, Abused and Vulnerable

Every third Thursday of the month from 7:45 to 8:15 am.
"The wonderful thing about praying is that you leave a world of not being able to do something, and enter God’s realm where everything is possible. He specializes in the impossible. Nothing is too great for His almighty power. Nothing is too small for His love." - Corrie Ten Boon

Join us as we pray for the physical, emotional and spiritual rescue of those coerced into the human trafficking industry. Contact Debby Dunn for the Zoom link or more information.
