WOMEN'S MINISTRY FAQ
The Grace of ENCOURAGEMENT and HOPE:
1 Thessalonians 5:11: "Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as you are doing."
Our Mission:
W.I.F.E is the umbrella under which all service, fellowship, and empowerment initiatives will operate and function. It is a vision divinely inspired and taking claim upon Founder Dannet Taylor-Mitchell's life. W.I.F.E seeks to encourage, empower, equip, and engage women in their journey to embrace biblical womanhood.W.I.F.E will offer women fellowship and encouragement, empowering them to see their life experiences through the lens of the Gospel.
Our Community Outreach will focus on Mentoring, Scholarship, and Awareness. W.I.F.E. seeks to be a change agent in our community by facilitating and participating in activities that encourage fellowship and opportunities for women, families, and communities to grow in faith.
What does the acronym W.I.F.E. mean?
Many women ask: "Is this a group for only married women?The answer: NO
Some ask? What if I'm not a woman of faith? Can I still fellowship?
The answer: YES
Others are concerned about: "I'm divorced, I'm an older woman, I'm in a different stage of life, and do I have to belong to a church?"
The answer to all these questions is NO! NO! NO!
- W.I.F.E is not a church-affiliated "women's ministry," nor do we want to replace your local church's women's ministry. It is not for married women only or an exclusive group of women.
- W.I.F.E (Women in Fellowship and Encouragement) is characterized by a diverse group of women who come together on many occasions with these key motives: to be engaged, encouraged, equipped, and empowered. Looking around, we can see that the traditional ways of women's groups have hit and missed many women. In addition, teaching that refocuses women's hearts to love and know God as their divine destiny is lacking.
In our seventeen-year history, W.I.F.E has seen lives transformed by applying a transparent and accountable life. Friendships are forged to stand in the seasons of life.
