The mission of FirstTouch Ministries for Women is to encourage women in spiritual growth, discipleship, enrichment, ministry, and evangelism. This ministry continues the historical involvement of women in church, builds on the biblical principles of women as gifted for ministry and expands the philosphical perspectives of women ministering uniquely to women.
Our Purpose/Goal
We desire to reach out to hurting women as well as disciple them. Women have a deep spiritual hunger to know Christ and to experience Him personally. Spiritual growth is our ultimate goal. Through relational (social, family, communication, witnessing, service, and friendship), physical (health, nutrition, addictions), emotional (self-esteem, depression,crisises, counseling), and mental (decision-making, time management, finances, leadership skills) biblical applications we plan to help them to that desired place of spiritual growth.
