Disciples Women’s Ministries is a conduit for diverse connections empowering each woman to find her voice and live out her call. (Micah 6:8)
As part of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ), Disciples Women welcomes all to the table as Christ has welcomed us. The ministries of Disciples Women are part of the movement for wholeness in a fragmented world by providing opportunities for spiritual growth, enrichment, education, and creative ministries to enable women to develop a sense of personal responsibility for the whole mission of the church. Find out more about Disciples Women through the links on the right.
We seek to be a network of women committed to the justice-seeking, compassion-focused mission of Jesus Christ with no membership requirements or conditions.

LOOKING FOR GIFTS THAT LAST A LIFETIME?
Maybe for generations? How about the perfect gift for someone special? You can give a gift that can change the lives of women and their children.
Disciples Women from the 2017 Woman-to-Woman Worldwide journey to India delegation had the opportunity to visit Global Ministries partners in Durgapur, Malda, Kolkata, and Delhi. There are many stories to be told and a lot of information to share. If you are interested in a visit from one of the members of the delegation you can find the list on the Disciples Women W2WW page. These women are looking forward to sharing their stories and experience with you. You will also hear about the project they have chosen to support for the coming year.
We also took on a short term project to fund a group of women in Delhi who wanted to start a training program for 7-10 women to learn how to sew garments to provide them with income and stability. The project provides income for 3 months of training and 3 months to begin their business with a plan that will make them self-sustaining after that 6 months. Thank you for your generous gifts to support this ministry. Our goal of $6,000 has been exceeded! Thank you for participating in this ministry to support these women in changing their lives.
We will continue to work on the other chosen programs and invite you to support them as well. If you would like to make a donation you can do so here: Global Ministries
