Groups
Our groups provide a community of supportive friendships that encourage you through God's word
CARRYWELL’s mission is to shine the light of Christ and provide community where you can find true healing.
CARRYWELL is here to carry you when you don’t have the strength, when you are not sure of the next step or when you don’t have the words to express what is on your heart. We believe community and connecting with others walking a similar journey is the first step to true healing.

Current Studies
CARRIED Through Fertility - The Hannah Anointing:
For women walking through a season of infertility
10-12 week gathering for 90 minutes
February groups are currently closed. Check back soon for our next group in the spring!
Have you experienced multiple miscarriages, or do you feel the monthly disappointment from negative pregnancy tests? Do you feel as though no one understands? CARRYWELL understands and we want you to know you are not alone. We believe there is healing for all. When we come together and share in our common experience, we are strengthened emotionally, physically and spiritually.
This study is based on the book, The Hannah Anointing, which focuses on Hannah’s story of infertility and how she overcame grief, disappointments, heartache and jealousy. Each chapter is filled with rich lessons, declarations and prayers that will help us grow in our faith and find hope in the season of waiting.

Waiting Faithfully Together:
For married couples walking through a season of infertility
8 week gathering for 90 minutes
Groups begin September 14th at 6:30 PM CST and will be held at Highlands Southwest in Birmingham, AL
Your marriage is important – in fact it should be the second most important thing in your life after your relationship with God. However, our circumstances can quickly change and alter our priorities. The impact of such a situation can intensify if we seek affirmation in something or someone other than God. In the case of parenthood, our lives can seem to unravel more and more with each negative pregnancy test or miscarriage, especially if we define ourselves by our ability to have children.
In this study, we will focus on several couples from the Bible who experienced infertility and; look at how they handled the grief, doubt, disappointment and pressure often encountered by those struggling to have a child. Through meaningful conversation, we will discuss how God wants us to respond, wait well and draw nearer to Him during this season.
