The Purpose of the
Disciples Women

The Disciples Women (Formerly, The Christian Women’s Fellowship) is a ministry that offers women in Central Christian’s congregation opportunities to fellowship with one another and to serve those in our congregation, community, state, nation and the world. The national organization will be celebrating the 145th Birthday of its founding in October of 2019. 

The Purpose of the Disciples Women:  To provide opportunities for spiritual growth, enrichment, education, and creative ministries to enable women to develop a sense of personal responsibility for the whole mission of the Church of Jesus Christ.  The Scripture for the Disciples Women:  “For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call upon Me and come and pray to Me and I will listen to you. You will seek Me and find Me when you seek Me with all your heart.  Jeremiah 29: 11-13 

All the Women of Central Christian are considered to be members of our local Disciples Women Group.

Historically, we have participated in the following service projects:

Local organizations for those in need in our community, such as:

Friendship Community Center

GA War Veterans Home (providing sweat suits, gripper socks, and blankets for veterans)

Angel Tree (providing gifts and monetary donations for families at Christmas)

Golden Harvest Food Bank (a local charity that provides nonperishable food items to those in need)

Rescue Mission (a local service organization for homeless adults in our community)

Church World Services (providing blankets to be distributed to those in need around the world)

Monetary support for Camp Christian (the summer camp for the youth in Georgia)

The Disciple Women’s State Organization provides opportunities for retreats and conferences during the year.
