Women's Spring Brunch

Saturday at 10:00 AM

Ladies, you can still join us for a joyful and refreshing morning at our Annual Women’s Spring Brunch tomorrow! This event is open to all women in our community—from middle school age and up—and is designed to encourage connection, foster community, and inspire hearts through God’s Word. Whether you’ve been part of the women's ministry at WCR for years or are brand new, you are welcome here.

Enjoy a beautifully hosted brunch buffet and dessert, served with love by our Women’s Ministry Team. Come ready to meet new friends, laugh together, and be strengthened in your walk with Christ as we wrap up our ministry year and look ahead to our summer book club.

Guest Speaker: Erica Baldwin

Support our Thailand Mission Team

Purchase supplies for our team and the missionaries they will serve alongside

You may not be able to travel overseas, but you can still make a meaningful gospel impact by supporting our Thailand Mission Team! This June, they’ll be hosting a kids camp in Bang-Pa-In, Thailand, and are in need of craft supplies to help make it a fun and impactful week for the children.

Use the links below to view and purchase items for the trip. The missionaries our team will be serving alongside have also shared a wish list of items they could use, along with a baby registry for one of the missionary couples who are expecting their baby in September.

If you choose to give, please keep in mind that all items must fit in a suitcase for travel. You may have items shipped directly to the church, or ship them to your home and drop them off at the table in the main lobby. If you decide to purchase or donate items without ordering from the wish list, please let us know so we can update the list accordingly.

Thank you for partnering with us to support what God is doing in Thailand!
