Baptist Women in Ministry

06/07/2026

Thanks to 60 generous donors, we've already made meaningful progress toward our goal of 200 donations by Tuesday at midnight.

We still need 140 more donations to reach that goal. Every gift helps ensure women in ministry know they are not alone and that a community is ready to support them through this critical moment.

Will you help us reach 200 donations before Tuesday at midnight?

Give today. God calls women.

For women connected to Southern Baptist life who are navigating difficult conversations about women in ministry, we want you to hear this clearly: your call is not diminished, your gifts are needed, and you are not alone.

We've gathered resources for women, congregations, and advocates seeking to support the full affirmation of women in ministry and leadership.

Why did we actually put up a billboard?

Not to change votes.
Not to win an argument.

More women are reaching out to BWIM than ever before.

Our goal: 200 donations by midnight June 9, the day before the anticipated SBC vote. Every gift helps ensure women know they are not alone.

We are giving thanks for the witness and ministry of this Baptist pastor!

"The Southern Baptist Convention will vote. Headlines will be written. Arguments will continue.

But long after the convention center empties, there still will be children who need the life-changing love of God. There still will be families who need shepherding. There still will be ministry to do.

And by God’s grace, that is where you will find me: not in the comment section, but in the butcher-paper rainforest. Not debating my calling but living it."
