• WM is Women supporting Women

    What does that look like? In one area it may means helping groups of women reach out to their community with the gospel, or lend a helping hand, assist marginalized women enter more fully into life, create safe spaces for women who are trapped by domestic violence or the sex trade, or women who are working overseas as missionaries and in need of connection and financial assistance. We are self supportive within the Conference and take on projects by faith to carry out our vision. WM throughout our denomination has these focus areas, ideally led by a person with passion toward this who then is part of the leadership team.  

    Growth:
    Key in this area is our Ministry Coach  Jenell Pluim. She’s a Life Coach, former teacher and missionary, and offers her time, experience and training. Women, both individually or groups, who would like some help on making ideas come to life, or get out of a rut, may find she has just the help they need. To find out more view her introductory video on our facebook page “women in touch”

    Equipping:
    We have committed to provide extra funds for “Life together House”, 2 discipleship homes (Calgary & Winnipeg) for young adults.
    Each year we assist in the travel of Ordinand Spouses so they can join in the joy of the ordination ceremony.


    Global :
    Every 3 years the women of the Canada Conference are partnered with 2 career Covenant missionaries and a retired missionary. Each career SIM is invited to submit a $300 US project that will enhance their ministries. In addition, each SIM receives a $25 US birthday gift.
