We hold to Luke 9:23, where "Jesus said to all the people, 'If any of you want to be my followers, you must forget about yourself. You must take up your cross each day and follow me.'"
Women of Purpose seek to provide an avenue for the women of First Baptist Church to grow in our spiritual lives, then follow and serve Him, through Bible study, through missions, through fellowship and witness.
We pray that our Bible studies cause us to ask ourselves what God wants us to do in following and serving Him with this newfound knowledge, and that our mission exposure deepens our love, prayer, and involvement in missions.
