International Disciples Women’s Ministries (IDWM)
1953 the ICWF (U.S. and Canada) was founded, and in 1982, the ICWF Cabinet was formed. Then, in 2006, the ICWF became known as the International Disciples Women’s Ministries (IDWM). This body of women sponsors much of the ministry with and for women of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) in the United States and Canada. Ministry originating from the IDWM is accomplished through the Executive Committee in partnership with the IDWM Cabinet, Disciples Women’s Leadership Council (DWLC), and the staff of the Disciples Women’s Ministries office in Indianapolis. In 2011, Disciples Women became self-determining and are now represented as part of OGMP’s cabinet and Justice Table. The work of IDWM is funded through the budget of Disciples Women’s Ministries, which is in close covenant with Disciples Home Missions.
Through Disciples Women sponsored events, women are invited to share the Good News through:
The IDWM is governed by the IDWM Rules of Procedure, Revised January 2023.
