At Reston Bible Church, we encourage widows to find hope and healing through authentic relationships with God and each other. Our mission is to support, encourage, and uplift women who have lost their spouses and to provide opportunities for growth and service in the community.

Widows Gatherings

With the encouragement and care of the RBC Deacons, the RBC Widows Group meets at RBC each Friday at 6:00 p.m., to come alongside new widows or those who have been widowed for a while. We have a devotional, share prayer requests, and have fun playing games (we do love our card game of GOLF!).

When we’re not meeting on a Friday night we attend concerts, do outside activities such as fruit picking, going to parks, and other activities.

For further information contact Diane Sheldon at smiles@restonbible.org.

Serving Others

By giving of ourselves to serve others we find both healing and joy! Serving others is a wonderful way to bring joy not only to those you’re serving, but to those grieving a loss. As we serve alongside one another it’s precious to see the smiles that light our group’s faces.

Some of our favorite service opportunities are packing up Christmas goodies for Guilford teachers and staff, making blankets for Guilford families, and volunteering at different events at RBC such as the Daddy Daughter Dance each year.
