Thank you for your interest in the Iris B. Vest Widows Ministry Center and the exciting world of widows’ ministry.

This ministry is dedicated to fulfilling the mandate of James 1:27. We have found that as the church fulfills this mandate, both the church and the widow become blessed and do what pleases the heart of the Father. We are committed to:

  • Finding the Widow - To penetrate this silent community through the use of personal contacts, referrals, and advocacy agencies.
  • Ministering to the Widow - We exist to be an active voice for widows and raise awareness of their needs by being a resource for churches in ". . .caring for widows."
  • Empowering the Widow - Help them take their rightful place of honor in the Kingdom of God through hands on ministry opportunities, workshops, community outreach programs.

If you are a widow, we want you to know that God loves and cares deeply for you. Your life is not over. Rather, God desires to reveal Himself in new and dynamic ways through you if you will allow Him to lead and guide you in this new season of your life. His promise to you is this:

For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, plans to prosper you And not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. (Jer. 29:11 NIV)

If you are interested in having this new ministry, we would like to be a resource in developing a widows’ ministry with you.

As you navigate this web site, you will discover inspiring testimonies to God’s faithfulness and compassion. We pray you will begin to understand the important role widows will play in the last days’ harvest.

Our prayer is that God would be glorified through this web site and the lives of widows would be transformed!

WHAT NOW LORD?
