PCG National Women's Dept.

Women of the Pentecostal Church of God enjoy a corporate ministry which reaches into every area of the church through related district, national and international ministries. Groups formed in the local church have a primary interest in undergirding the spiritual foundation of their believers with prayer and Bible study-reaching beyond that with assistance in fund-raising for special projects and administering the social functions of the church. Working in cooperation with the national and district women's ministries, our women's services literally reach around the world through provision of equipment and educational materials for missionary training centers. In the United States, major attention is directed to the support of Messenger College, for which they provide subsidies, scholarships and special helps to students, as well as funding general cosmetic maintenance of the facilities.

PURPOSE:

The purpose of the Pentecostal Church of God Women’s Ministries shall be to minister to the total woman through evangelization and spiritual enrichment; through helping her to personally establish her Christian relationship in the home; and by showing loving concern for our youth through support of Messenger College. Other purposes shall be to encourage a missionary zeal and spirit throughout the churches—through the offerings given to our missionary programs; to assume the responsibility of sponsoring the various missionaries in their respective fields of labor; to carry on home missionary work on the behalf of the needy; to help the orphaned and neglected, homeless and delinquent children; to promote the Gospel program in every way through earnest prayer and in regular attendance at services and in a material way through various fun-raising projects, each of which shall be conducted with the knowledge and approval of the respective pastor.

COVENANT:

Whereas, God is calling the ladies of our churches into His vineyard and giving them a zeal for service to others and a burden for the lost; therefore, we, the Pentecostal Church of God Women’s Ministries, do hereby pledge to prepare ourselves by seeking God in personal commitment and by building homes with Christian relationships as a top priority; further, we will work together for the advancement of the Gospel of Christ around the world. We will not knowingly lend ourselves to any program that would hinder the cause of Christ. We will put forth every effort to keep our meetings free from unChrist-like conversations and activities. We will endeavor to keep uppermost the advancement of home, foreign and Indian missions to the utmost of our abilities, and we will band ourselves together to pray unceasingly for our missionaries and their work around the world.

DOCTRINAL STATEMENT:

The Bible shall be the rule and guide of faith and life, especially the fundamental truths of Salvation (John 3:5), Divine Healing (James 5:14, 15), Baptism of the Holy Spirit (Acts 2:4), and the Second Coming of Christ (Acts 1:11; 1 Thessalonians 4:15-17), and the blessing of service (Ecclesiastes 9:10; Romans 12:11), and shall be in full accord with the doctrinal statement of the Pentecostal Church of God

SPIRITUAL GOAL:

Helping every woman to find her secret place in God.
