Women's Ministry
Deaconess Deaconess Samaria Fredericks-President
Mission Statement: The Women's Ministry of Solid Rock Christian Church seeks to mentor women, foster spiritual and personal growth, and equip our women to bring other women to Christ.
2010 Theme: "Transforming lives through Worship, Prayer and Praise".
Galatians 6:1 and 2 says: Brethren, if a man is overtaken in any trespass, you who are spiritual restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness, considering yourself lest you also be tempted. Bear one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ. (Gal. 6:1-2 NKJV).
The women of the Solid Rock Women's Ministry understand that because of the diverse situations and circumstances in the lives of all women today, it is a blessing and a struggle to address and meet the needs of everyone.
When we seek inspiration, enlightenment and are often times praying for a miracle, we as Christian women must recognize that God throughout Scripture acknowledges not only the trials but also in their triumphs of women. From these women, we can draw strength, encouragement and wisdom because as we learn about them, we in turn learn about ourselves and more importantly, we learn about our God.
