General Overseer Announces New Structure for Women’s Ministries

Church of God General Overseer Timothy M. Hill, recently announced a revised ministry structure for the delivery of women’s discipleship, events, and ministries.

Hill announced in a correspondence with women leaders in the denomination that the Executive Committee has asked the Women’s Ministries Council to take a more active leadership role in serving the women of the Church of God.

“This will bring about many changes, primarily drawing a clear distinction between the new International Women’s Ministries Department and Women’s Discipleship,” Hill stated. He explained that International Women’s Ministries will serve the state/regional Women’s Ministries directors by providing leadership materials and mission guidance, including the Women with a Mission (WWAM) projects. In addition, to build a sense of community among Church of God women, Women’s Ministries will be sponsoring several regional Faith, Fire and Freedom Celebrations this fall.

To carry out the responsibilities of the International Women’s Ministries, the team working directly with Paula Hill and the Women’s Ministries Council will include Dee Raff as the administrative assistant to Sister Hill and the Women’s Ministries Council, and Cheri Cummings as administrative secretary. In addition to Paula Hill, the Women’s Ministries Council includes Peggy Culpepper, Joyce Stephens, Fernanda Ramirez, and Debbie Childers.

With the restructure of these ministries, Pam Brewer will be working in Adult Discipleship with her husband, Wayne, focusing on the continued development and promotion of discipleship training for women under the heading of Women’s Discipleship. Women’s Discipleship will focus on some of the following:
• Promote Women’s Discipleship initiatives, including Kindle the Power (KTP)
• Develop a Women’s Discipleship training program (i.e. LifeBuilders) with a manual on Women’s Discipleship for the local church and guidelines on how to disciple women
• Train Women’s Discipleship leaders on local, state/regional and national levels.

Tim Hill concluded, “The Executive Committee looks forward to what God has in store for the women of the Church of God through the efforts of both the International Women’s Ministries department and Women’s Discipleship as we all work together towards the FINISH Commitment of the Great Commission.”
