He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty, I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress; My God, in Him I will trust.  Psalms 91:1-2

The Women’s Ministry of First Union Baptist Church is a praying and teaching ministry. We come together once a month to be ministered to and to minister to each other. We are in the business of learning and teaching God’s word so that we can carry it to our community, our children, our jobs and most of all our homes. We want those we meet to know that we love the Lord and from the teachings we receive that we are equipped to take His word outside the walls of First Union Baptist Church.

The mission statement of the Women’s Ministry is to strive to equip the women of the Church to live in God’s will and to spread the Gospel by providing opportunities for biblical teaching, studying of the word and Christian fellowship.

We give all the women of First Union Baptist Church the opportunity to join our ministry. The Women’s Ministry meets every second Monday at 7:00 pm.
