Scripture Memory Groups

Scripture memorization is a great way to meditate on God’s Word. It also gives you the truth as a weapon to combat the lies of the enemy.  Scripture memorization isn’t always easy – it takes time and intentionality. Joining a scripture memory group is a great way to have encouragement and accountability to stick with it.

Registration will be made available when groups open!

Apples of gold was such a wonderful experience that enriched both my marriage and my faith. Growing up, I had only secular examples of marriage all around me, so being mentored by women with successful Christian marriages was such a privilege. Learning these foundational principles early in my marriage has set me up for a Christ- centered marriage filled with joy, respect, and trust.

Madison Lahr

Apples of Gold is a forever sisterhood in Christ. It literally had me crying most nights as God worked on my heart through the lessons shared by each mentor. Hearing each testimony, meeting other ladies with similar phases of life, observing the love the mentors have for one another, the one-on-one mentorships, dinner talks, and let’s not forget the simple and delicious meals were always fun and super encouraging. I am so grateful I was able to be a part of a group of women that love the Lord so much and dedicate their lives to serve/uplift the future generations of women.
