Refresh Ministry Women
Group Details
Stephanie and Vicki will be co-leading this pilot group for women whose husbands are lead pastors. Through the course of the year we will read and discuss books that are relevant to our personal spiritual formation. Group interaction will be expected, not only for one's sake, but for that of the whole group. Our prayer is for our faith to be increased and an awareness of God's intended purpose for each of us to be solidified. Our intended outcome is for you to have a deeper understanding of God's Word, to exercise your privilege and responsibility to pray, to learn skills for building meaningful relationships, and to finish with confidence to be a disciple of Christ.

Stephanie Scheperle serves as a staff pastor at Life Stream Church in Washington, Missouri. Small Groups, Missions, Visitor Follow-Up, and all the amazing things that go along with being the lead pastor’s wife stretch her beyond what she ever imagined possible for an introvert-at-heart, albeit an introvert that has learned that God is faithful to equip with every obedient “Yes, I will.” Zechariah 4:6 has become her theme verse, “Not by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit, says the Lord of Hosts.”
Stephanie has been married to Paul for 31 wonderful years. They have three young adult kids: Gabriel, a senior at Oral Roberts University; Benjamin, his twin brother, a senior at Evangel University; and Elizabeth, a sophomore at St Louis Community College. Disc golf, escape rooms, watching British murder mysteries, paint ‘n sips, and studying verse-by-verse commentaries are her favorite thrills.
Vicki Miller serves as the director of Refresh Ministry Women of the Southern Missouri Ministry Network AG. Before coming to the SMMN, she served alongside her pastor husband at Ash Grove Assembly of God. A self-proclaimed "crack-filler", Vicki enjoyed organizing various ministries and relinquishing those oversights to capable members during their 25-year term. Vicki also enjoyed her years as an elementary school teacher.
The joys of her life are her four adult daughters, their husbands, and unmistakably, her seven (soon-to-be eight) grandchildren. Reading, sleuthing decor ideas, drinking iced tea, and spending time with family and friends are among her favorite things to do.
