Women's Ministry

But they that wait upon the Lord, shall renew their strength, they shall mount up with wings as eagles, they shall run and not be weary; and they shall walk and not faint.

— Isaiah 40:31

Purpose

The Gulf States Conference Department of Women’s Ministries strives to encourage and help each woman to Grow in Faith Through Service. This is accomplished by helping her realize and develop the unique talents and spiritual gifts given to her by God which will assist her in reaching others for His kingdom. Our ministry has been a vital part of the Gulf States Conference since our very first retreat in 1988 with guest speaker Kay Kuzma. We look forward to growing together in Christ and being the woman, wives, sisters, mothers and daughters God wants us to be.
