Equipping women and girls of all ages to grow in Christ, serve their families, strengthen the Church, and reach the world.
Our Mission Meet the Board
Women's Ministries International is the official women's organization of the Congregational Holiness Church, functioning at the General, District, and Local levels. Our official name reflects our reach: local churches, districts across the nation, and mission fields around the world.
Our objective is to provide women and girls of all ages the opportunity to grow in the knowledge of Christ and be strengthened as members of His body. We believe that when women thrive spiritually, families are stronger, congregations are healthier, and communities are transformed.
From the youngest girl in Girls Ministries to the seasoned minister's wife, every woman has a place at the table and a purpose in the Kingdom.

Women's Ministries is active in every CHC district. These dedicated leaders oversee women's ministry in their regions, connecting local churches to the larger mission.
Women's Ministries International operates through five distinct ministry groups, each designed to meet women and girls at every stage of life and calling. Together, they form one mission.
The core group serving women of all ages in the local church. Monthly meetings, discipleship, service, prayer, and community are at the heart of what Women's Ministries does together.
Raising up the next generation of women in Christ. This group focuses on mentorship, identity in faith, and calling — investing in young women who will lead families and churches for decades to come.
A dedicated program for girls, providing age-appropriate spiritual formation, leadership development, and a community where girls discover who God made them to be.
A place of encouragement, support, and equipping for the women who stand beside the men who lead our churches. This fellowship honors their unique calling and provides the community they need to thrive.
The CHC affirms that women are ordained to preach and are encouraged to exercise all gifts imparted by the Holy Spirit. This fellowship supports and connects women answering the call to ministry at every level.
