Department of the Pastors/Elders/Ministers/Deacons Wives - "THE ELECT LADIES"

Department Coordinator: Wife of the Superintendent, Mother Gwendolyn Lawson Townsend

Within our District are the Wife of the Superintendent, Wives of Pastors, Wives of Elders, Wives of Ministers and Wives of Deacons to assist in the work of the ministry. The wives are an integral part of "hands-on" ministry within their prospective churches and keeping the women within their churches active and connected in unifying district activities through "The Elect Ladies" Department.

This Department is not in name only but is a serving Department, carrying out at least one service ministry annually.

In 2014-2016 as mission-minded, we collected hats, gloves, blankets, etc. for a Mission in Downtown Seattle. Along with distributing the items in the Winter, this Department completely reorganized and updated their Clothing Room.
In 2016-2018 we supported 4 designated families for the year for back-to-school, Thanksgiving and Christmas.
In 2018-2020 we are carrying out a project called FAITH & HOPE Live Here to encourage prayer, witnessing, and District Church growth of guests and new members.
Spring 2020 our Department held its first Annual Elect Ladies Fellowship Tea.
Winter 2020 our Department facilitated its first Holiday Encouragement Card Exchange.
Spring 2021 our Department had planned to sponsor a virtual Women's Conference - Power Forward. This was postponed because of COVID to be rescheduled as an inperson event for 2023. Watch for our activities in the months to come!

For more information, please email the Elect Ladies or, regarding Department Unity Activities, contact the Activities Chair, Lady Melannie Brown.
