Disciples Women
International Disciples Women's Ministries (IDWM)
The International Disciples Women's Ministries sponsors much
of the ministry with and for women of the Christian Church
(Disciples of Christ) in the United States and Canada. North
American women, along with women from around the world,
meet at Quadrennial Assembly every four years to worship,
fellowship and confirm elections to the governing offices
of president, vice president and executive committee at
the Assembly.
Ministry is accomplished though the executive committee
in partnership with the IDWM Cabinet, Church Women's Staff
Fellowship, and Disciples Home Missions through the staff
of the Office of Disciples Women.
Through Disciples Women sponsored events
women are invited to share the Good News through:
- Worship for spiritual growth and renewed
discipleship;
- Bible study for greater knowledge, understanding,
and service;
- Issue study for action and advocacy;
- Mission study for knowledge, understanding
and acceptance of others;
- Service/action for hands-on/personal involvement;
- Fellowship/networking for building the faith
community with other women;
- Leadership training for service to God in Disciples Women, the
church, and the community;
- Stewardship of time, talent, and resources
for the mission of the church.
