EMBRACE, a ministry of WMU of Texas, is a mentoring experience for young women between the ages of 18-39, who are searching for their ministry purpose and calling.
EMBRACE came at just the right time as I was praying for a spiritual mentor.
Through the six-session program, I had the opportunity to be paired with a wonderful mentor. She was a spiritual mentor. We prayed together and encouraged each other. I am grateful for this experience and continue to mentor younger ladies as they seek the Lord. I believe in the value of mentoring relationships to help guide and develop us spiritually and professionally.
The curriculum also challenged me to look at the spiritual disciplines. Our small group discussed each session’s topic and we were able to share about the impact and struggles we were facing. Meeting women from different organizations and hearing their stories reminded me that we all can be used by God in ways we may have never imagined. His plan and timing is always perfect.
