I can break my ministry down here... http://www.donotcrush.com this is my ministry website.

I haven't started my full time ministry yet, but right now my biggest ministry is a project supporting mission work. You can learn more about it at paperclip2house.wordpress.com/about-me/

I'm curious to know what kinds of ministries we have represented here.

As for me, I'm the (solo) pastor of a small presbyterian congregation.

I am a church receptionist starting September 7.

I hope so! I love support ministry, and I have been looking for a new job for a long time!

I voted other. I'm just now entering the candidacy process for my denomination. When I graduate from PMLS this coming spring I will be a pastor, then I am looking at attending seminary and being a student pastor until I graduate. Then I will be an Elder in full connection.

Yay! I'm in a similar process (just starting my second year of ordination training). God bless you!

Thanks hon! I think you know how much of a struggle it has been for me to turn my life around and get to this point. Your support means so much to me!!

I'm so happy that you're on your way and pursuing this call!


Hey! Would you two be interested if I started a "women in ministry" thread? Not the usual "does she or does she not work for Satan" stuff, but a support thread where we can hang out and talk seminary, church, internships, whatever? There are a few others on this site, I think, we could invite to join.

 

[karen freeinchristman]

I think that would be really great, Macrina!

 

[kelco]

I second that!!

Cool -- I'm going to start one in this forum. Please invite any female ministers or seminarians you know to stop by and hang out!
