Women's Ministry @ North Jackson Baptist
“Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works” (Matthew 5:16).
The letters WMU stand for Woman’s Missionary Union. Both women and men, girls and boys, are members of WMU organizations, although the founders were women. Thus, the name Woman’s was selected to emphasize the individual woman’s role and her identification with WMU’s objectives, Missionary was included to identify WMU’s purpose, and Union was included because together we can do more than we can separately.
The purpose of the Mission is twofold:
First, reaching inward, nurturing our membership through mission study, education, fellowship, and prayer.
Second, reaching outward, through personal witnessing, evangelizing, helping the needy and less fortunate, and seeking justice and liberty for all in the name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
All ladies of the church are encouraged to attend meetings and take an active role in the WMU. We are in need of those who are willing to carry out Christ’s Great Commission.
