Women
Bay Farm Womens’ Ministry is a diverse community of women of all ages, stages, and places in our faith journeys where you can come as you are and find authentic friendships centered on Jesus Christ and His living Word. We were created to live life together so that the world will know we are Christians by our love that is unified, gracious, compassionate, and reflects the hope of the Gospel of Jesus Christ to our communities and world. We can’t wait to meet you and encourage you in the season God has you in!
When we hear the name Gideon, most of us think about his 300 soldiers or the fleece he laid out under the evening sky. But Gideon’s story is so much bigger than that—bigger than any one man and his mark on Israel’s history. Like everything else in the Bible, this is a story about God and His people. His love for them, as well as His strength operating in spite of their weakness—even through their weakness. And because God’s people includes you and me, Gideon’s story is also about us—our lives, our doubts, our struggles, and our possibilities as believers. From a state of fear, weakness, and insecurity, Gideon emerged as Israel's hero, filled with God's presence and His passion for deliverance. This 7-session study by Priscilla Shirer will encourage you to recognize your weakness as the key that the Lord gives you to unlock the full experience of His strength in your life. In what ways do you feel insufficient? Those places create the greatest opportunity to experience the sufficiency of God. Instead of ignoring, neglecting, or trying to escape your weaknesses, see them as the gifts that they are, given specifically and strategically by God to unlock the door of God’s strength.

Looking for a bit of fun with your girlfriends or looking to make new friends?
The best part of a paint party is that painting skills are not required!
You can enjoy a light breakfast with your old and new friends, and everything else will be taken care of. We will provide an art instructor, art supplies, the sample terra cotta pots, and step-by-step instructions! So, you don’t have to worry about anything – you can interact with our great instructor, chat with your friends, and perhaps, create some Terra Cotta Pot masterpieces!
This is an awesome opportunity to just relax, connect with others, and have a great time of conversation and making memories! Painting and fellowshipping with your girlfriends is just what you need. Besides, we are not trying to create fine art, but fun art!
This Class is for Women - no children or childcare provided.
Tickets are $45 per person
WE ARE PAINTING ON TERRA COTTA POTS - YAY!
Meet Katie our Art Instructor
Katie Connell has been creating entertaining experiences at museums and art studios for over ten years. A lifelong artist, she loves sharing creative space with others as they flex their own artistic styles. She is a strong believer in enjoying the process, and loves helping new artists figure out those subtle techniques they’ve been missing. Living on the California coast, she is inspired by the beauty she sees in the unique landscape of California, especially the oak woodlands of the Central Valley, the rocky coastlines, and native California poppies.
When she’s not painting, you can find her running all over Alameda with her three young children.
