Women's Ministry at First Baptist

One-To-One Mentorship/Discipleship

A mature believer coming alongside another woman to support, encourage, and equip her to grow spiritually for God's glory. "But we were gentle among you, like a nursing mother taking care of her own children. So being affectionately desirous of you, we were ready to share with you not only the gospel of God but also our own selves, because you had become very dear to us." I Thessalonians 2:7-8
