• Align our ministries with our endowment
•  Enable us to fully live our mission and vision
• Share our core values in our circles, associations, regionally, nationally, and beyond
• Deepen and broaden our programming and access to women, young women, and girls
•  Pursue relevant programming that persists and engages women within our denomination for decades
• Sustain and secure the future of AB Women’s Ministries: our singular focus on women's wellness and concerns positively impacts the wellbeing of our families, churches, communities and denomination
