Hinds Feet Ascending is a group of ladies who totally love Jesus and want to grow in their upward walk with Him as He cares for each of us in all the seasons of our lives. We learn together from the Bible lessons and we share our growing experiences with one another, thus helping each other to higher heights in Jesus. There is great joy in this group and amazing love and grace given both at the meeting and also through prayer in the in-between times. There is a place for everyone and everyone has a place!
