Leaders’ Meetings (Part I)
Our pastor’s wife, Denise, has always been the head of the women’s ministry. But she has a group of women serving under her to support her in the ministry. These are women she has seen to be faithful not only in attending church regularly, but in their involvement in and commitment to the women’s ministry. She has been able to observe firsthand that they have a heart for the Lord, a heart for women and a heart for serving others.
Our leadership team has grown over the years, and we currently have nine women involved in leadership. In our case, that is not too many because Denise is limited by her health, and she needs extra hands.
We currently get together for a once-a-month meeting. Denise normally has an agenda, which may include delegating responsibilities for upcoming events, discussing issues and problems which have arisen, and touching base with the leaders personally. We pray together for our women and for one another. Denise shares her heart and the leading God has given her for the women’s ministry. This meeting assures that we are on the same page as leaders.
More about our meetings next week.
