Connecting Women
We meet women, of all ages, right where they are to encourage, support, pray with them, and equip them in their journey with God. We invite women to faithfully and fully use their God-given gifts to glorify God.

Guest Speaker: Cheryl Berto
Cheryl Berto has been a member of Living Hope Christian Fellowship (one of our MCBC churches), since 2014 along with her husband Frank, who is the lead pastor there. She has been working as a therapist seeing individuals and families since 1989, in a couple of different capacities. Her longest stint was as a part-time staff therapist at Vancouver Christian Counselling Center starting in 1999.
She remained working at VCCC until it was closed in 2014 which served as an opportunity for Cheryl to continue to see her clients as a private practitioner which she continues to the present. She has also been working as an adoption social worker since 2008 (also part time). Along the way she became a mother to her 2 now adult daughters, and feels that building a family is harder than helping others find healing for their families.
The thing Cheryl likes best about working as a therapist is the opportunity to invite people into more of God’s love and goodness. Her topic “True Beauty”, is a compilation of thoughts and beliefs about life, womanhood, and healing.
Come and be inspired as we dive into God's truth about beauty, connect with other women, and enjoy a time of fellowship.
