The Well Women's MinistryFounder, Ministry Co-Leader

Nov. 2015Cleveland/Akron, Ohio AreaThe Well Women’s Ministry was established with the mission of bringing together women from all walks of life to fill them with encouragement, love, and purpose and help them experience an encounter with God. We purpose to help women reach their goals, while giving them practical tools and lessons that allow them to grow personally, professionally and spiritually. The purpose of the original service was to engage in a night of worship, prayer, praise and fellowship, while developing a better understanding of what a well represents for us, individually and collectively. What originally was to be one service to encourage, empower, and set free women, transformed into something never imagined - a fully developed, traveling ministry! Soon, The Well Women’s Ministry will seek non-profit status so that we might be able to offer additional programming and minister to more women.
