Every Woman - Restored to Serve

"He Restoreth my soul..." Psalms 23:3

The Women's Ministries department exists to uphold, encourage and challenge Seventh-day Adventist women in their pilgrimage as disciples of Jesus Christ and members of His world church.

Over the last year we have been working to improve communication between the conference and the local churches and to provide ongoing training opportunities for local Women's Ministries leaders.

Department Vision: "Every Woman - Restored to Serve", and it is our sincere hope that, through our programmes and support and through sharing with one another, that our women will continue in personal and spiritual growth.

Our Goals for 2010:

  • To have an active Women's Ministries Department in each church;
  • To have improved communication between the conference, the local church leaders and individual women;
  • To provide on-going and relevant training and support to local Women's Ministries leaders;
  • To provide a platform for women to share their knowledge and expertise with their sisters in Christ and within their communities;
  • To provide programmes that appeal to women of all ages;
  • To encourage women to value and appreciate the cultural diversity in our church.

We would also like to harness the immense amount of knowledge, skill, talent and resourcefulness of the women in this conference to help us provide a meaningful, relevant and Christ-centred support for our women, of all ages and ethnic backgrounds, to be nurtured and encouraged to be all they can be in Christ. If you have ideas, skills or some other useful input, please get in touch.
