IF:Table is a time for women of all ages and stages to create connection and build genuine faith-based relationships. This is an opportunity to meet other women in our community, be known and encouraged, and display God’s love to those around you. We will hear a brief devotional message, spend time in discussion, and answering questions that help us build connection and see God’s work in our everyday lives.

Wednesday, Aug. 20, 6:30-7:30 pm
Students in grades 6-12 are invited to join us as we close out the summer with lawn games, food and worship. Cost is $3 and includes ice cream from Outside Scoop. Bring a friend!

Have you ever wondered if there is more to life than this? Maybe you have no interest at all in Christianity. Or you are a seasoned Christian but have forgotten the basics of why you believe what you believe. That has made Alpha such a helpful experience for the thousands who have attended the nine-week course and day-long retreat here at Hope Ankeny.
