Women's
Ministries
What is SBW? The ministry of Shawnee Baptist Women consists of
personal development through service to church, community, and missions. SBW
offers opportunities for women to relate to each other in a uniquely female way
to deepen our faith, serve our church family, and be involved in mission
outreach. SBW also provides social opportunities for the women of FBC to get to
know one another better as well as organizing church-wide events such as the
Bean Supper and Ice Cream Social. SBW hosts an annual women’s retreat at Tall
Oaks Conference Center each September. You are always welcome to invite your
friends to join you in any of these activities.
