Outreach to Women

This ministry vision is to see women living freely as children of God, reflecting His beauty and contributing to their communities. The ministry will build confidence and a sense of responsibility, through discipleship and development of creativity. Women will understand their identity is in Christ and grow their skills through artisan activities or through community development projects. These activities will be a form of outreach and income-generating projects, accessible to any women (and men), and will ultimately contribute to the development of a mature and growing church.
