Women on Mission® is
a missions organization for women (ages 18 and up) through which women pray for and give to missions, do missions, learn about
missions, grow spiritually toward a missions lifestyle, and participate in the work of the church and the denomination. The
purpose of all Women on Mission activities is that every person have the opportunity to hear and respond to the gospel.The "heart" of Women on Mission
is to help women create their own missions vision by enabling them to:
• Recognize their status in Christ. Galatians 4:7, Ephesians 1:3-14
• Find an entry point to fulfill Christ’s purpose in their lives.
Jeremiah 29:11-13, Romans 8:28
• Reflect the highest ideals of Christian living. Ephesians 4:1,
1 Thessalonians 2:8
• See their lives as set apart for the gospel. Galatians 1:15-16a, 2 Timothy 1:6-14
• Affirm God’s call both individually and corporately. 1 Peter 2:9
• Reach beyond
themselves to a global vision. Acts 1:8, 2:17
• Commit to a rewarding missions lifestyle Colossians
3:12-17, Philemon 6

How does Women on Mission work? Women
on Mission members participate in ongoing small groups, through individual involvement, by attending missions events, or by
participating in a missions project.
1. Small Group Involvement Small groups are created based on a common need, interest,
lifestyle, or missions purpose. Groups allow for intimacy and accountability. The resource for these groups is Missions Mosaic magazine.
2. Individual Involvement Women can join Women on Mission even though they may not be able to participate in
a group. Every article and daily devotional in Missions Mosaic gives guidance to the woman
who cannot participate in an ongoing group.
3. Missions Events A missions event creates greater missions awareness in the church.Weekend retreats, weeks of prayer, celebration experiences, even missions
fairs, bring all women of the church together to celebrate what God is doing in their lives, in their Women on Mission groups,
and in the world.These experiences move women to greater missions
involvement through the use of worship, music, speakers, testimonies, presentations of the gospel, seminars, missions presentations,
demonstrations, drama, prayer, and fellowship.
4. Ministry Projects Hands-on participation in ministry projects changes lives
and attracts people to missions work. Whether the project is a long term local ministry or a short term volunteer missions
trip, the results are more Christians involved in missions work and more lives touched by the gospel message.
