W.I.N.G.S. – Women in God’s Service
W.I.N.G.S. is a community of women who desire to grow in faith, serve with purpose, and share Christ’s love with others. Our ministry exists to encourage one another, reach out to those in need, and faithfully support the mission work God places before us.
Our Purpose
We gather together to:
Know God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit more deeply.
Grow in faith, hope, and love as we strive to become stronger servant leaders.
Build a supportive and loving fellowship where we learn to feel and follow the heart of God.
Support outreach ministries that extend beyond the walls of our church.
Mentor younger generations of women, helping them discover mission opportunities and develop a vision for future service.
When We Meet
We meet on the first Tuesday of each month at 10:00 a.m.
All women are welcome! We understand not everyone can attend morning meetings, but we invite all women to participate in any of our mission ministries and outreach efforts whenever possible.
Ministries We Support
W.I.N.G.S. is blessed to partner with and support several meaningful ministries, including:
Pathway
The Call
Homeless Ministry
Backpack Ministry
First Choice
Shoes for Kids in Genoa and Fouke Schools at Christmas
Fellowship of Christian Athletes
Throughout the year, we also host several fundraising events to support these ministries, as well as additional needs that arise within our community.
Backpack Ministry
The Backpack Program began as a national effort to provide food for children who may not have enough to eat on weekends when school meals aren’t available. Locally, Harvest Texarkana supplies food to participating schools in Southwest Arkansas.
Sponsors make it possible for schools to take part in this program. While many Texarkana-area schools have strong sponsorship, schools outside the city often do not. Because of this, Christ Church faithfully donates each year so that children in both Fouke and Genoa Elementary Schools receive weekend food support.
These funds come from the fundraising efforts of various church groups—including W.I.N.G.S.—who feel called to make sure no child goes hungry. If you would like to contribute directly to the Backpack Ministry, please contact our church secretary, Mary Jansen, at 870‑774‑4091.
