EXPERIENCE COMMUNITY

Through monthly meetups with your local group and the annual gathering, experience the connection you’ve been craving through our Genuine Memberships Community. 

Registration is required for the Bible study group you wish to join. A shared stewardship commitment accompanies registration, helping sustain the ongoing work of Genuine Women by covering the practical costs of running the ministry. This commitment also allows us to build a storehouse fund that supports the immediate needs of our Genuine community, as well as missions and outreach beyond our gatherings. In this way, your participation is an act of shared stewardship that strengthens both the body among us and the work God is doing through us.

In Their Own Words

Why Memberships? 

Our heart behind small groups is to cultivate spaces where women consistently gather, because faith and trust are formed over time, not in isolation . When women show up regularly, relationships deepen, walls come down, and genuine vulnerability becomes possible within a safe and Christ-centered community . Scripture shows us that transformation happens as we are known, encouraged, and sharpened by one another in the body of Christ . These consistent gatherings allow women to walk together through truth and love, experiencing real growth both biblically and relationally. We believe this kind of shared life is where lasting spiritual fruit is formed and disciples are made.

Your membership reflects shared commitment and stewardship, helping sustain this ministry and strengthen the community God is forming among us.

Our Heart

Registration is required for the Bible study group you wish to join, along with a shared stewardship commitment of $35 per month. This shared stewardship helps sustain the practical work of the ecclesia, enabling us to gather faithfully in teaching, fellowship, and shared life (Acts 2:42–47). It also allows us to build a storehouse so that needs within the Genuine community can be met and generosity can flow outward through missions and outreach, as modeled in the early Church (Acts 4:32–35; Galatians 6:10).

In this way, we steward resources together for the strengthening of the body and the advancement of the gospel (Matthew 28:19–20; Malachi 3:10).

LOCATED OFF OF MAIN STREET CHINA GROVE, NC

GENUINE CHINA GROVE

Led by: Melissa Lynn Hunt 

I’m a mom of two boys and have been married to Jason for 17 years! The beach is my happy place, but I equally love curling up on the couch to watch a movie with my family. I absolutely love in-person connection, and I’m most looking forward to diving deep into God’s Word and gaining new sisters in Christ through Genuine. Genuine Ministry is my passion, and I’m continuously blown away by how God uses this ministry to draw His children closer to Him.

My heart is to see women come to know and love Jesus and to live in the fullness of who they were created by God to be. I long to see women find restoration in their marriages, healing in their friendships, and renewed purpose in their mothering. I want to walk alongside women as they find freedom from addictions and sin—and ultimately step into the abundant life God has for them. Nothing brings me more joy than seeing women live fully, boldly, and beautifully in their identity in Christ.

A detailed schedule will be released following registration.

I’m truly looking forward to building meaningful new friendships!"

GENUINE KANNAPOLIS

Led by: Melissa Rice 

"I’m an old-school enthusiast of books, dark chocolate and coffee. My happy place is with my husband Frank (for nearly 29 years now) and my three boys who are now all young men. My day job is a high school English teacher for over twenty years. If I need an escape, take me to the beach or to the country; if there’s no time to travel, then a library or bookstore will do. Give me some real conversation filled with laughs, deep thoughts and God moments and I can live right there. Diving into God’s Word with His women and walking together through life is my passion!"

I am the cultivator of
in-person relationships!

I am on a mission to help others disconnect from digital distractions and surface level friendships. I have created a space for women to connect in the way god intended us - together in a shared space - hand in hand.

I am sure i share some similarities with you - trying to lead my children down the right path in life, Have a fruitful and loving marriage, be a present and caring friend, and everything in between. 

Which is why I am here to unite Christian women in our communities. 

rooted in scripture and God's guidance, OUr discussions will focus on the word of god so that we can live in the fullness of who we were created to be.
