The primary purpose of Side by Side is for older women to nuture younger women in the Word of God and to encourage them to go deeper in their walk with Christ.

Side by Side is a 7 week session that meets once a week in a host's home.  The evening begins in the kitchen with a cooking demonstration and appetizer, followed by a Bible study (covering a different topic every week) in the family room.  The evening ends at a lavishly decorated table, with a prepared meal served to each woman by our "sidekicks".  During the meal, the ladies engage in guided conversations about the night's topic and are encouraged to live out the lessons learned. 

A full class size consists of 8 mentees and 4 mentors. The class sizes are kept small to allow relationships to form between the class members.  We have additional people in attendance each week, but they usually do not participate in the Bible study or around the table.  These are usually our cooks, sidekicks & sometimes hosts. 

The 7 week study covers the following topics:

  • Loving God
  • Loving-Kindness
  • Living Wise & Pure
  • Layers of Authority
  • Loving your Husband
  • Loving your Children
  • Keeping your Home

We invite you to attend our Side by Side mentoring program, where you can truly encounter a life-changing experience!

Personal Testimonies from former Side by Side mentees!
 
"My husband will tell you that our relationship is much stronger because of the important, yet simple lessons I learned during the Loving your Husband class."
 
"The personal attention I received every night from the mentors and sidekicks was wonderful, and it was a perfect example of how to show kindness to others."
