Welcome
Here at Parish, we want to support our women to think biblically and live covenantally. We have created events and resources to help each woman in whatever walk of life she may be in. Come back to this page often to see what’s new, and to get involved!
“But as for you, teach what accords with sound doctrine…Older women likewise are to be reverent in behavior, not slanderers or slaves to much wine. They are to teach what is good, and so train the young women…” — Titus 2:1, 3-4
Relying on the Ordinary Means of Grace • Living Covenantally • Missional Multiplication • Covenantal Succession
Bible Study
We meet to study Scripture and/or Doctrine together at various times and seasons of the year:
Fall 2025: Ephesians: A 12-Week Study
This season, we'll be diving into the powerful and deeply encouraging book of Ephesians. If you've ever wondered what it truly means to be "in Christ," or how the gospel transforms your everyday life, Ephesians is for you. Though only six chapters long, it's packed with spiritual gold. This letter serves as a kind of handbook for believers. The first half overflows with what God has done for us in Christ, and the second half calls us to live it out in our homes, churches, and communities. It is both theologically rich and imminently practical.
Our very own Pastor Jamie Crampton will be leading us through this study! We are so thankful for his enthusiasm and willingness to walk alongside us in this 12-week journey. Each session, we will meet in small groups of women to discuss the reading for the week and then receive teaching from Pastor Jamie.
Women's Bible Study meets weekly on Tuesdays from September 2nd through November 18th with both morning and evening sessions.
Mornings at Clovercroft Hall 10:00-11:30am (Childcare Provided)
Evenings at the Taylor Home 6:30-8:00pm
Purchase your copy of the book Ephesians: A 12-Week Study, from the Parish bookstore. Pease contact Christian Barnes for more information: christian@parishpres.org

Discipleship Groups
Women's Discipleship Groups are for women across all ages and life stages!
These groups are designed to help women live out the Titus 2 model - older and younger women walking together in faith, wisdom, and purpose.
Each group will meet once a month during the last week of the month, gathering for Scripture, prayer, and real-life conversation centered around Lydia Brownback's book A Woman's Wisdom which explores practical, biblical counsel from the book of Proverbs.
Locations:
Franklin
Spring Hill/Thompsons Station
Murfreesboro
Columbia
Brentwood
These once-a-month gatherings offer a beautiful opportunity to grow in grace, build friendships, and be equipped to live as both disciples and spiritual mothers and daughters. We hope you'll join us!
Workshops
Announcing Monthly Women's Workshops!
This fall, we are launching a new and exciting initiative for the women of Parish designed to cultivate deeper connection, celebrate the gifts within the church, and provide meaningful opportunities to learn, grow, and simply enjoy being together.
Each month, one of our women will host a hands-on workshop to share a skill, hobby, or area of expertise. From women's health to flower arranging, sourdough baking to painting, nature walks and storytelling -- these gatherings will showcase the many beautiful talents of the women in our congregation.
More than just skill-building, these workshops are about building relationships and serving the Body. We want to provide a space where women of all ages and stages can connect in a relaxed, joyful setting, learning from one another and delighting in the good gifts God has given to our community.
September's Workshop:
Women's Hormonal Health
Hosted by Stephanie Fennema in her home
Saturday, September 27th from 10am-12pm
Please RSVP by emailing Stephanie at stephaniefennema@gmail.com
