Purpose
The ANCHOR is so titled to communicate a commitment to God's Word as the foundation - the anchor - for all of life and ministry.  It is a unique ministry of discipleship for women that is built on the basis of a serious love for, and study of, Scripture as well as a deep commitment to one another.

Values that define the ANCHOR ministry:
* A desire that women would grow in their love for God's Word
* A desire that women would grow in their relationships with one another

Structure of the ANCHOR:
Personal study guide
To assist each woman in individual study of the passage and its implications to her life
Small group experience
To encourage each woman to come alongside others and share not only the Gospel, but their lives as well
Lecture
To increase each woman's understanding of Scripture, its context and historical background and the application of its truths to her life

New Day!
We are opening up a new day of the Anchor this fall.  We will still have groups meeting on Tuesday mornings and evenings. New groups that are formed will meet on Wednesday mornings, and will have childcare provided just like Tuesday morning groups.  We also have an option for you to form a satellite group at another day & time if necessary, to follow the same format as Anchor's Away on Tuesday nights.

Fee Structure
$60 registration fee covers both fall and spring semesters.
Childcare (for both semesters) is available by reservation for a one-time fee of $10 for the first child, $5 each for the second and third child, and free for fourth and subsequent children.

Questions regarding childcare? Contact Mindy Thornton at 704-708-6133 or mthornton@christcovenant.org.

2009-2010 Anchor Recap
Our 31-week study “Lord, Teach us to Pray” has taken us through the Psalms of Ascent, the Lord’s Prayer and the Apostolic Prayers. Our hope is that we have become women who know how to pray according to the will of God and who know why we pray, considering the benefits for the pray-er, for the church and for the kingdom.
