Ladies’ Spring Bible Study

Beginning April 2026

Throughout Scripture, God works powerfully through the lives of women—ordinary and extraordinary—whose faith, obedience, courage, and even struggles reveal His redemptive plan. The Women of the Bible remind us that God uses every story for His glory. Join us as we study their faith, strength, and surrender—and discover how their journeys speak into our lives today.

This will be a six week study with an introduction session beforehand. We are offering a Tuesday morning session at 9am and a Wednesday night session at 6:30pm. Schedule is listed on the graphic above.

All you will need for this study is your Bible, a notebook and a pen.

Women’s Ministry Mission Project Day

Saturday, April 18, 2026 – 10am

Join us for our Mission Project Day on Saturday, April 18th at 10am in the Ministry Building.

We will be packing bags of feminine care products for our local high school girls for the summer months. These bags will go to White Knoll High and possibly other schools if we are able to put together enough bags. The nurse’s office will distribute these bags to girls who need assistance in getting these items.

Thanks to a generous donation, we have enough supplies to put together 60 bags. Donations are welcome so we would be able to put together more bags.

In Memory of Gale Smith

March 24, 1950 ~ July 15, 2025

In the words of Maya Angelou, “People will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.” Gale Smith, born in Texas City, TX, on March 24th, 1950, was a woman who made an unforgettable impact on all those lucky enough to cross her path. Gale’s life was a testament to the power of love, compassion, and the joy she found in serving others. She thrived in her career with the Department of Corrections, where she committed herself to making a difference. But it was in her personal life, where she truly shone, as a beloved wife, mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, and friend.

Gale was a woman of many talents and accolades. Crowned Miss Laurens 1969, and even winning the swimsuit competition at The South Carolina Beauty Pageant in 1970, Gale’s beauty was just the tip of the iceberg. Her true beauty lay in her heart, which was evident in her tireless dedication to her community through her active service in the Red Bank Baptist Church. Gale served as the head of Women’s Ministry, taught Sunday School, participated in the choir, and sung for countless events, touching the lives of all those she encountered. 

Gale leaves behind a legacy of love and service. She is survived by her devoted husband of 46 years, Dulon Smith; loving daughter, Kim (Benji) Hook; her adoring grandchildren, Tate (Haley) Hook and Caleigh Hook; great-granddaughter, Blakely Hook; her siblings, Ralph Henry (Juanita) Williams and Linda Sue Williams (Joe) Pitts; and her sister-in-law, Marjorie Swofford; along with nieces, Anna Monaghan and Kristen Pitts; and nephews, Kevin Williams and Nicholas Williams. She was predeceased by her parents, Frank Henry Williams and Eula Mae Harris Williams, and her brother, Frank Vernon Williams.

To quote another wise woman, Helen Keller, “What we have once enjoyed deeply we can never lose. All that we love deeply becomes a part of us.” Gale’s love, spirit, and joy will continue to live on in all those she touched.

Merry Christmas 2020

redbankwomen

Hi everyone. Well, 2020 is coming to an end. There’s been many challenges this year that came in different forms. With the challenges came changes.

When a storm comes, clouds form and the sky gets darker and darker. And then it hits. The length of a storm varies, but after the storm there is a freshness, a washing of sorts, of nature and civilization. Where once there was dirt, grime, and heaps of leaves, now there are flowers pushing their way through all that to reach up and bloom with an array of color and foliage. Even streets look brighter. They have been changed by a storm.

Through this storm may we be changed and emerge with a freshness, a renewed passion for the life we have been called to as children of God. He is speaking to us! I ask myself and each of you “are we listening?”

Christmas may be different this year, not large gatherings, but the meaning and the focus has not changed. Emmanuel, God With Us.  Jesus left all of glory and came to be our Redeemer, giving us life eternal through his death, burial. and resurrection. We can REJOICE in that truth and celebrate our life in Him.  

We love each one of you and wish you A Merry Christmas and a Blessed New Year.
