Women's Ministries at West Des Moines Christian Church

Women's Ministries

In April 1999, the West Des Moines Christian Church Board approved a reorganization of the women's groups. The Women's Ministries Board was formed in June 1999 to oversee the women's groups. In 2006, the Board was revised to become the Women's Ministries Committee. The Committee is comprised of the officers and representatives of the current women's groups.

We strive to include women of all ages. To share ideas, concerns or new group possibilities, phone Maxine Fulton. If you need child care to attend any of these groups, contact the church office.

The purpose of the Women's Ministries shall be to provide opportunities for spiritual growth, enrichment, education and creative ministries to enable women to develop a sense of personal commitment for the whole ministry of the Church of Jesus Christ. It is to develop a deeper understanding of Christ's love and salvation for others and ourselves, and to provide channels of service to the church, the community and the world.
