Bloom
Bloom is the women’s ministry of SLE Church. Twice a year, we gather to open God’s Word together, allowing it to shape our understanding of Christian womanhood and equip us to navigate its unique challenges.
As women of all ages and life stages, we seek to encourage and support one another, building the kind of intergenerational relationships modeled in Titus 2. Through Scripture and meaningful connections with each other, we grow in living out our faith, investing in each generation of women walking in Christ.
Bloom is open to all women of SLE Church aged 18 and above, seeking to bloom beautifully in the image of Jesus Christ.
Identity Crisis
We live in a world of confusion about who we really are. Am I who others perceive me to be? Am I who I am working hard to become? Am I who I really know myself to be deep down? Is my identity something I can forge out for myself, or is it given to me? And to what extent do I listen to & accept what God says about who I am? Is His voice drowned out by the world, by Satan’s lies and by my own sinful desires?
Ladies, we need to get clear on who we really are! Because how we define ourselves has huge implications for how we feel about ourselves- whether discontented, proud, shameful, worthless, indispensable, average, unimportant, pleased, worthwhile or superior. But most importantly, we need to get clear on who we really are so that we can be who we really are.
The Comfort of Identity in Christ
Saturday, 3rd May 2025
1:30pm - 4:30pm AEST
Various Homes
This first session of Bloom in the year will be held in groups at homes. If you have any questions, please email bloom@sle.church.
In a world of confusion, God's Word gives crystal clarity as to who we are. Amidst all the uncertainty and instability about who we really are, we get profound stability as we understand the gospel and how through it we become united to Christ, and are 'in Him'. Where fear and anxiety about whether we measure up or are good enough plague us, we'll see how being 'in Christ' brings profound comfort, joy and direction to our lives.
The Challenge of Identity in Christ
Saturday, 30th August 2025
1:30pm - 4:30pm AEST
North Hall, SLE Church
We'll be thinking about what we're challenged to do and live out in light of this new identity as women in Christ, and the challenges of doing so. We'll also have interviews with real women to see how they've live it out, faced the challenged, and found comfort in identity in Christ
