Welcome to Christ Church Women!
Christ Church believes in the power of women to uniquely influence their workplaces, homes, neighborhoods and beyond. We believe in the power of women to influence the church. Our Women’s Ministry mission is to cultivate an environment where women are equipped, inspired and empowered to know and experience the power of God. A place where women in any season of life gather for connection, community and an opportunity to explore faith together. We hope you'll join us for one or more of the groups, gatherings and events we offer.

Holy Yoga
Summer Drop-Ins | Select Dates | Oak Brook
Holy Yoga
Summer Drop-Ins | Oak Brook
Holy Yoga takes a break from regular classes over the summer, but keep an eye out for a few pop up classes offered. Details will be posted here once dates are selected.
What is Holy Yoga?
Holy Yoga is the intentional practice of connecting our entire being, body, mind and spirit with God: the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. It is experiential worship created to deepen people’s connection to Christ. Our sole purpose is to facilitate a Christ-honoring experience that offers an opportunity to authentically connect to God through His Word, worship and wellness.
We practice with our minds set on whatever is true, noble, right, pure, lovely, admirable, excellent or praiseworthy (Philippians 4:8), not with our minds emptied. We meditate on the wisdom of God’s Word (Psalm 119:9–16, 26–27), not on man’s wisdom. We seek the transcendence and glory of God, not our own.
What should I wear and bring to class?
Participants should wear comfortable clothes (layer up) and have a yoga mat or thin exercise mat. A yoga block or pillow/blanket may also be handy.

Women of Hope
Women Of Hope: A Community Bible Study
Women of Hope takes a summer vacation from our large group live teaching and worship format. However, our small groups continue to meet in various capacities. Some groups read a book together and meet once a month, some groups listen to a podcast and gather to discuss, some groups simply meet for coffee and prayer and others choose to do a weekly or bi-monthly Bible study. Most groups choose to meet at someone’s home, or at a park and a few groups meet at our Oak Brook or Butterfield campuses.
Please see Women’s Summer Groups to register if you are not currently connected to a Women of Hope small group.

Professional Women’s Group
Professional Women’s Group
Thursdays | 6:00–7:15 a.m. | Zoom Meeting
Our professional women’s group consists of women in a variety of careers who desire a place to explore faith and find friendship. Typically the work day doesn’t allow time for meeting in person, so we meet on zoom Thursday mornings from 6:00 a.m. to 7:15 a.m.
From September through April we follow along with Women of Hope and study the same materials but over the summer we meet and discuss different topics as a way to stay connected. We also find time to meet in person at least once a month. If you are interested in joining the professional women’s group, please sign up at Women’s Summer Small Groups and type “Sue Williams” in the field that asks if you are signing up with a friend. Sue leads the small group and this will ensure you’re placed with the Professional Women’s Group.
We look forward to meeting you!
