The women’s ministry of CCoM provides both single and married ladies of all ages an opportunity to grow in the knowledge and service of our Lord Jesus Christ as God has ordained through His Holy Word. The goal of the ministry is to equip women to fulfill their God-ordained role in the body as delineated in the Pastoral Epistles and Proverbs 31, especially the areas of marriage, family, and child-rearing. This is facilitated through informal gathering and discussion of Biblical principles and building of mentor/disciple relationship in order to bring full application of the Scriptures to our lives. Specifically, this is accomplished through a life witness of prayer, admonition, fellowship, and reaching out to the local body of Christ.
It is presumed that the women of CCoM attend and/or listen to all current services and prayer meetings, so that the body may be unified in its service for and fellowship with, the Lord Jesus. We believe that between the sound Biblical teaching offered weekly and the ladies’ “hands-on” ministering and outreach, the women of Calvary Chapel Manassas are fulfilling God’s call to glorify Jesus Christ through Biblical womanhood.
The following specifics are guidelines:
-Encourage the women of the church to attend Sunday and Wednesday services for their weekly Bible teaching. If unable to attend, listen to Pod-casts on line or CD’s of the weekly messages.
-Pray publicly for the body of Christ on Thursday evenings at CCoM.
-Reach out to the body through meal preparation and assistance following birth, hospitalization, or sickness.
-Fellowship and mentor the younger women through bridal and baby showers, child training instruction and home school groups, and hands-on mentoring.
-Fellowship and mentor through in-home teaching and sharing ministries such as sewing, baking/cooking, food preservation and canning, soap-making, etc.
-Reach out to the local community through praise, singing, prayer, and friendship outreaches such as elderly and convalescent care homes.
