Are you a woman in Christian ministry facing challenges?
Navigating the complexities of Christian ministry as a woman can be daunting, especially without a supportive community or resources customized to your unique needs. You may feel isolated, lacking the mentorship, training, or prayer support necessary to thrive in your role. The constant demands and pressures can leave you feeling drained, leaving you to question your abilities and purpose in ministry.
Join our network today and connect with like-minded women in ministry who are committed to uplifting and empowering each other in their ministry journeys. Together, we can provide the support and encouragement you need to thrive.

What Others Are Saying
Rev. Dr. Kara Werner
S.W.I.M. International affirmed my call to ministry and ordained me in 2022. Since then, I have seen God's favor poured out in greater ways, as I have seen dozens of people make professions of faith in the last year and a half, and God has led me to publish two books about God's relationship with his people. The women are so supportive of each other, and they truly invest in their sisters through prayer and care. I know that God has been moving in my life in response to the affirmation and prayer of these godly women. Thank you for listening to and obeying the promptings of God. He is at work in his people!

Rev. Denise Much
I wasn't brought up in a Godly home. I wasn't taught the ways of God. But God saved me and called me to ministry. When I told my Pastors what I'd heard, they told me I must have misunderstood. For years, I lived within this restricted view. I learned, served, taught, and preached. Then, a friend invited me to a S.W.I.M. retreat. I met wonderful, anointed, praying women. God rekindled and affirmed the call to ministry. The women of S.W.I.M. have mentored me in leadership. I was ordained through S.W.I.M. in 2017 and invited to serve on the S.W.I.M. Board. It has been such a rich blessing to be a part of S.W.I.M.

S.W.I.M. is a great women’s organization. They provide an amazing support system for women in ministry through daily devotionals, retreats, intercessory prayer, ordination, and licensing. I have personally experienced support from S.W.I.M. and have formed beautiful friendships. I have also received much prayer and intercession, encouragement, and appreciation for my ministry and the work I do in Mexico. I am grateful to know that when I have a prayer request, an email goes out to the intercessors for immediate attention.
