Women's Ministry
Mary L. Howard, Coordinator
Our mission is to serve God by reaching and making disciples for Christ as we encourage spiritual growth in women.
Our women's ministry offers many opportunities with the purpose to encourage women to mature in their relationship with Jesus Christ, to fellowship with one another, and to serve others through Christ.
- There are various activities for you to choose from, many opportunities. Just like a jewel is enhanced by its cuts and polishing, we pray that God will use our ministry opportunities to enhance your true beauty, skills and gifts
- To ‘equip' suggest that we may at times need the right tools and work places to sharpen, practice, teach, and use our gifts. Our Bible studies, service opportunities, and special events will do exactly that as you participate and step out to do something you've never done before
- Maturity is not a matter of time-passing age but a mind fed and nurtured on God tested wisdom. We know that we have women of all ages 18 years to 99 years walking in this wisdom and we want to invite you to join us on this eternal journey.
- We recognize that women have many different types of relationships. These relationships are brought to their highest and best by a strong and healthy relationship with our Lord Jesus Christ; in support through fellowship with one another; and service that flows out of our love for God and caring for each other
And we pray this in order that you may live a life worthy of the Lord and may please him in every way; bearing fruit in every good work. Colossians 1:10
We all have different gifts, according to the grace given us. If a man's gift is prophesying, let him use it in proportion to his faith. If it is serving, let him serve; if it is teaching, let him teach; if it is encouraging, let him encourage; if it is contributing to the needs of others, let him give generously; if it is leadership, let him govern diligently; if it is showing mercy, let him do it cheerfully. Romans 12:6-8
That means we must be changing, growing, and moving forward. At Greater Marshall Memorial Baptist Church we blend the study of God's Word with service; We are ordinary women of all generations: single, married, divorced, widows, mothers, grandmothers, aunts, daughters, and friends. Please join us! No requirements, qualifications, or memberships. Just come for a relationship with other women who are on the same journey as you
But where can wisdom be found? Where does understanding dwell? – Job 28:11
