Join us at the YWCA Hanover every Monday and Wednesday at 9:00 am for Faith & Fitness Ministry with Ched Lawrence
Faith & Fitness Ministry is a non-profit program that promotes Faith, Fitness, and Fellowship throughout the community. The program is an exercise workout designed to strengthen and tone muscles and joints. The program begins in a prayer circle, participants bringing prayer concerns to the circle. The instructor reads a short devo and a 45 minute workout follows with Christian music. A free-will offering is suggested, ($1.00), but not mandatory which is given back to the community to meet the needs of God’s people. The instructor and participants discuss where the money is donated as needs are brought to the program.
YWCA Hanover will be hosting a casual networking event opportunity for local business women. Learn about services, products offered by local businesses, community resources, and spend time networking with local business women.
YWCA Hanover’s Advocacy Committee will be in attendance. The committee is interested in hearing social concerns important to you.
