For 76 years the Baptist Women of Victoria have been serving
our churches with the motto—Living Faith,Loving Service.
During this time, the B.W.V served well and laid a solid foundation,
providing women many opportunities to get involved with ministry
and mission locally, nationally and internationally. However,
there have been significant changes in our society, in our
churches and in the way we minister and as a result women’s
needs and the way that they lead and minister have altered
also. A new women’s ministry needed to emerge that was
contemporary and understanding of women today. After an 18
month recess, much prayer, a vision from God and building
on the solid foundation laid before us, a new women's ministry
has emerged.

The women’s ministry is a not for profit organization providing training, resources and creating opportunities for our Baptist women to meet, network and celebrate our Christian faith together.
