Widows Ministry Leadership Training
Widows Ministry Leadership Training is a comprehensive course designed to help church leadership become aware of a powerful, yet often untapped resource they have in their congregations - Widows!
This three-day workshop gives you with the basic tools and a better understanding of how to fulfill the mandate to care for and honor the widow.
Our goal is to help you identify and minister to their immediate and long-term needs, learn ways to empower them, and help them step into their rightful place in the kingdom. . .a place of honor.
See how to develop a powerful prayer army that establishes the borders of your ministry, and undergirds and blesses the works of your hands. (Proverbs 15:25, Deuteronomy 14:29). You will experience revelation from the Word of God in a powerful way that will change your life forever. You will never look at Widows Ministry the same!

Ron (Knoxville, TN)- " A wonderful experience! I would encourage anyone
who has the opportunity to attend to do so. It will open your spiritual
eyes and allow you to see the importance of the role of widows in the end
time harvest."
Charlotte (Helena, AL) -"This program is very organized and educational.
The facilitators and educators were excellent. The residents were helpful
and friendly...I never realized that there was so much about widows I didn't
know, even though I is one! God does hear my cry!"
Michael (Clarksville, TN) "The Holy Spirit has made Himself known in this
place. I feel His presence and His power. I thank God for this powerful
ministry!"
Vee (Sunfield, MI) - "Every church needs to have this information and tap
into the resources available to us! What a blessing also to see the widows
praying for the fatherless children. . .what an impact! This was such an
eye opening experience for me!"
