WIC Purpose Statement |
|
The Women
in the Church, as a ministry of the First Presbyterian
Church of Jackson, seeks to glorify God and serve
Christ’s kingdom on this earth. We believe that the
entirety of Scripture is inspired and infallible and is
to be our guide for faith and life. We seek to support
our Session and ministers in their God ordained roles as
leaders and shepherds of this body through participation
in worship, discipleship, and outreach; and we seek to
promote the church’s peace and purity as we co-labor in
the work of the church.
The Women
in the Church, understanding the unity we have in
Christ, seeks to unite FPC in Christian community by
helping all our women know and apply increasingly the
teachings of Scripture in all areas of life and by
seeking to involve them in meaningful communion by
equipping them for ministry, service, and care. The
goal of this ministry is to aid in the spiritual growth
and care of those within our community of faith and to
pass our faith along to succeeding generations, both
physical and spiritual, teaching them to promote the
welfare of Christ’s church, both locally and worldwide
|
|
The Primary Goals of
the Women In the Church are: |
|
1) that
our women be taught and increasingly apply the teachings
of Scripture so that God would be glorified in our
lives,
2) that we, through the faithful stewardship of our
time, talents, and treasures, involve our women in
meaningful community and service with one another so
that Christ would be glorified through acts of
encouragement, mercy, and compassion,
3) and that we equip our women to support our leadership
in the work of the church through worship, discipleship,
and outreach so that our church could be found faithful
in service to Christ.
