<p>The Church Of God In Christ</p>
<p>THE CHURCH MOTHERS BOARD<br />
NATIONAL AND STATE LEVEL</p>
<p>The role of the local <strong>church mother</strong> is indeed one of great importance and a &#8220;must&#8221; for a growing church. She is to a pastor in the local church what a wife is to her husband at home.<br />
The day has far passed for a pastor to teach form the pulpit things that women should know. It was never proper, but accepted because of the time. Today, such teaching and instructing would only embarrass and drive out our present-day generation from the church.</p>
<p>Here is a very important task for the local church mother. She should hold monthly meetings with the women of the church and teach them things women should know. This is far more effective through the <strong>church mother&#8217;s board</strong>. This board is made up of a group of seasoned and well-informed women in the church administration. This board shall consist of a president, vice president, secretary, and treasurer.<br />
They must know their obligations to the church and pastor in order to instruct others. This board shall teach the support of the church and the pastor. The women should be taught community respect and appreciation. Church mothers should most certainly lead and teach along these lines.<br />
The major responsibility is to help build every auxiliary of the Women&#8217;s Department in the local church. The church mothers should have fingertip information as to the functions of every auxiliary. They should be able to see to it that they are properly staffed and functioning. A strong church is one that is spirit-filled and well organized. This will not take from the pastor, but will enhance his program and help to build the kingdom of God.<br />
An effective church mother&#8217;s board cannot operate without the authority released by the pastor and officers of the church. It is unfair to appoint a chairwoman of the church and tie her hands and the hands of the board. Women who cannot be trusted should not be appointed because the responsibility is too great. A failure in operation will only impede the progress of the church.<br />
There should be a pastor-church mother relationship going on at all times and the pastor should be able to request anything within the reason to the church mother&#8217;s board and look for results.<br />
All of the above suggestions must be in harmony with the pastors. Remember it is the pastor&#8217;s church and they are the Lords people.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>God is moving in a mighty way at the Childress Memorial COGIC in San Antonio, TX through the profound leadership of our pastor, Bishop S.E. Iglehart. It is through his leadership that the women are in charge each fifth Sunday weekend, known as R.E.A.C.H. (Reaching Everyone And Creating Hope). We begin each Friday night with an opening address; workshops, luncheons and fellowship on Saturdays and the grand finale on Sunday/Sunday night. This August, our theme was &#8220;Powerful, Passionate and moving toward Perfection&#8221;. We were blessed to have with us, Missionary Pamela Hunt from God&#8217;s Grace COGIC in Sacramento California. She truly blessed our souls. We also had our first annual hat brunch for the women to fellowship and have a little &#8220;Girl Talk&#8221; applying Godly principles to everyday social, marital, and home issues faced by so many women of God everywhere.</p>
<p>We were also blessed to initiate our first REACH-out to the sisterhood of God&#8217;s Grace COGIC who came with our guest speaker. They will launch their first REACH in 2010. We are excited about this initiative and hope to help unite the sisterhood all over the nation. REACH out!!!</p>
<p>If you would like additional information regarding REACH, feel free to contact me through the church office: Childress Memorial COGIC, 901 N. Pine Street San Antonio, TX 78202. <br />
210.223.1262 &#8211; office or you may visit our website <a href="http://www.Childressmemorialchurch.com">www.Childressmemorialchurch.com</a>.</p>
<p>We will be in our REACH services and workshops this weekend coming. Our theme is &#8220;God&#8217;s New Thing for Your New Year&#8221; Isaiah 43:16-19. Our guest speaker is none other than Evagelist Janice Iglehart Craig from Dallas, Texas. We anticipate a MIGHTY move of God. Be blessed in the Lord!!!</p>
