East Heights offers a study class for women several times a year. Information is available on the Adult Education page.
MOMs (Mothers of Munchkins)
Mothers need a time to get away and fellowship with other moms, and the MOMs group is just the place! MOMs meet every Tuesday in the Covenant Room from 9:30 to 11:30 a.m.
Children are cared for in the nursery while moms spend time together doing a variety of projects, listening to speakers, carrying out missions and just having fun.

Dorcas Circle sews for others. Members bring their sewing supplies and make items to give away. Our name comes from a woman in the Bible who sewed for widows and orphans (see Acts 9:36-42).
Dorcas Circle meets throughout the year.
