“The Well… the bucket… and the living water” (John 4:11)
For women of all ages, cultures, and denominations
Come to the well and drink of the living water! In a society where women often feel overwhelmed and disconnected, our buckets are at times empty. Jesus’ visit with the woman at the well offers her hope and opens her heart to accept a life of abundance. Come! Connect with other women as we experience the overflowing grace and joy in our lives. Leave refreshed!
