Reaching the world for Jesus Christ by linking hearts and hands

WMU

Mission Statement
God has called Woman's Missionary Union (WMU) for a special work.... That of teaching His people about being involved in His plan. God calls each of us to understand and embrace the Great Commission as our own personal mandate.

The mission of Transylvania Baptist WMU is centered around the areas of missions focus. The list looks like this:

Pray for Missions		Engage in Mission Action and Witnessing

Support Missions
		Learn about Missions
Develop Spiritually toward a Missions Lifestyle

	Participate in the work of the Church, Association and Denomination

Vision Statement
WMU has the special task of providing missions education for all ages. Thru age-level education curriculum magazines and mission offering promotions, the Western North Carolina Fair Ministry, the Red Box Prison Ministry, and the Pacific Rim Prayer Group, we challenge churches and missions leaders to recognize that God is calling us to serve Him in missions. What an incredible opportunity we have to help guide, encourage, and challenge those hearing the Lord call them to be apart of reaching a lost world. Our watchword in Colossians 1:10 (NKJV) says, "Walk worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing Him, being fruitful in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God." Let us walk this journey with Him as He guides us through His word, to understand, embrace, and live the call!
