Empower
EMPOWER is a developmental ministry certificate program designed by women for women, to move to the next level in their personal relationship with God and to walk in the fullness of their gifts and calling. The program is designed for women to receive biblical and theological training, enrich their own personal spiritual formation by dealing with issues of the heart, and process with other women in small mentoring groups.
Women want to have a greater understanding of their purpose in life. Training in theology and spiritual formation helps women discover who they are and how they can activate their gifts and calling in God's redemptive work for all people.
EMPOWER, in partnership with the Metro District, encourages women to be equipped, motivated, and prepared to grow in ministry.

Navigating Ministry as a Woman: October Masterclass
Being a woman in ministry is a calling filled with both joy and challenge. Our voices are needed, but not always heard. Our strength can inspire, but also intimidate. Our emotions are often misunderstood when they are, in fact, a powerful gift.
If you’ve ever wrestled with feeling unseen, misunderstood, or unsure of how to fully step into your ministry calling, this masterclass is for you.
In this 60-minute session, you’ll learn how to:
- Find and use your unique voice with confidence
- Navigate criticism and difficult people with grace and strength
- Reframe your emotions and empathy as gifts, not liabilities
- Stay spiritually healthy while leading and serving others
