Welcome to the Woman’s Missionary Society Page.
Motto: Women With A Mission
Hymn: “People Need The Lord”
Color: Shades Of Purple
Verse: John 20:21 – “As My Father Hath Sent Me, So I Send You.”
Over the years, the leaders of the WMS have worked toward the same goals, to promote missions and support the needs of our missionary families. This is the reason for the monthly offerings and requirements for Honor Society. Each member gives as they can and the many small offerings multiply so our missionaries’ needs are meet.
Attendance is important for each member to grow spiritually through Bible Study, to learn about the work of our missionaries, and to share in evangelism.

What is the WMS?
The purpose of the WMS is to teach, promote, and support missions, to include a threefold objective.
1. The WMS teaches the duty and responsibility of taking the gospel to all nations.
2. The WMS helps each woman find her place in God’s plan of world evangelism.
3. The WMS encourages and challenges each woman to actively share in the opportunities she has of reaching her family, church, community and the world for Christ.
Note: The name Woman’s Missionary Society was purposely selected instead of Women’s Missionary Society because it is personal for each individual woman (4).
