UPCOMING EVENT
FALL RETREAT 10/8-10/10

"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls." — Matthew 11:28-29
In a world that demands we do more, be more, and move faster, Jesus offers a different way. He invites us to lay down the heavy burdens of "busy" and "stress" and find true, soul-deep restoration in Him.

More about Ignite Women's Ministry
JULIE OGLE
Women's Ministry Leader
Ignite Women’s Ministry exists to bring the women of Calvary Newnan together to spur one another towards Christ, encourage one another in deep authentic community, and help equip one another to advance the kingdom by making disciples in our homes and communities.
Grow In Christ:
Growing in Christ isn't about striving for perfection; it's about deepening our relationship with the One who already calls us worthy. We encourage women to anchor themselves in God's Word, cultivate a vibrant prayer life, and let their faith transform who they are from the inside out.
Grow In Community:
You were never meant to carry life’s seasons alone. We are building a vibrant, multi-generational sisterhood where you can be authentic, find encouragement, and share your burdens. Through our events and small groups, you will find a safe place to laugh, cry, and lift one another up.
Grow the Kingdom:
Preaching the gospel means letting the hope of Jesus overflow into every space we occupy—our homes, our workplaces, and our neighborhoods. We equip women to confidently share their unique stories of redemption and love others with the same grace they’ve received.
