Thrive is Ada Bible’s Women’s Ministry where all women come together to share life, pursue God and invest in others. Find your place for community with small groups, monthly gatherings at your campus and special all-campus events.
We have many things happening. Join the discussion with our Facebook Group or on Instagram.
Subscribe to our Thrive monthly newsletter and stay up-to-date. Each month, we share important event information, encouraging stories and ways to further your faith.
Looking for some spiritual encouragement in your life? ABC Moms is a time to relax, develop friendships and grow in your faith in Christ with other moms. Your infants, toddlers, and preschoolers will be tenderly cared for as they learn about Jesus in our secure and fun children’s program. ABC Moms is held at the East Paris Campus on the 2nd, 4th and 5th Tuesdays from September through May.
Registration is required. For questions, please email us.
Each week at each campus, women connect with the same group of 8-12 women in small groups to study God’s word and build relationships. You can sign up for an on-campus group through Thrive events, service projects and social gatherings. Children’s Program is available during morning studies only.
A variety of Bible studies are offered at each campus. No matter where you are in your spiritual journey—we have an on-campus group for you.
We have women’s small groups that meet in homes, offices, coffee shops and other places in the community.
We have a seat for you. Find a group with openings through Group Finder.
These groups meet for 10 weeks and are designed for you, or a woman you know, walking through the trauma of a spouse’s sexual brokenness (including addiction to porn or unfaithfulness).
Let us journey with you to help you find a connection to God that allows you to begin to heal, build your own intimacy with God and restore hope & healing to your relationship with your spouse.
