Women At The Well

Dear Sisters In Christ:

             I want to take this time introduce you to the Women’s Missionary Organization of the Ava Missionary Baptist Church. We have formed this group of women with the expressed desire to reach out to the community of Ava Il., with the Gospel Of Jesus Christ , through our lives and our missionary efforts.

             Our goal is  to equip adults, youth, children and preschoolers with missions education to become radically involved in the mission of God.

 Our Core Values

 ·  We uphold the foundational principles of the priesthood of every believer and the autonomy and uniqueness of each local church in carrying out the Great Commission.

· We embrace the strategic role of prayer and giving for missionaries and missions needs.

· We recognize the role of family in discipleship and missions development.

· We recognize the giftedness of women and girls and accept the responsibility to help them use their gifts in serving Christ.

· We accept the responsibility for nurturing preschoolers, children, youth, and adults in missions.

· We accept the responsibility for developing and equipping missions leaders.

· We accept the biblical mandate to respond to human need with actions modeled by Jesus Christ and with the message of God’s redemptive plan.

· We partner with other Great Commission Christians to lead a lost world to Christ.

· We believe that Jesus Christ, Son of God, gave His life a sacrifice for the salvation of all the people of the world, fulfilling God’s plan for the ages as revealed in the Bible, God’s Holy Word.

 Our  Vision Statement

WMU challenges Christian believers to understand and be radically involved in the mission of God. 

  I would like to take this time to invite you to our next meeting which will take place on Feb. 10th 2009 at 6:30 p.m.  This meeting will take place in the  Educational Building of the Ava Missionary Baptist Church and is open to all women of any age.

 Yours In Jesus Christ

Carol Ethington.
