Do you desire to be the woman God created you to be even though our culture is influencing you otherwise? The Apples of Gold ministry brings God’s instruction for older women to teach younger women in Titus 2:3-5 and put it into action through Bible study discussion, cooking lessons, fellowship at the meal table and mentoring relationships.
