Disciples Women’s Fellowship at First Christian Church is part of an international organization of Disciples Women’s Ministries of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ).  Here at FCC, Ocala, we also include men in our fellowship.  Our purpose is to provide opportunities for the spiritual growth, enrichment, education and creative ministries to enable everyone to develop a sense of personal responsibility for the whole mission of the church of Jesus Christ.

 

DWF (Disciples Women’s Fellowship) participates in Church Women United, a mission based women’s organization.  Through this affiliation, we work ecumenically to become one in the spirit of unbroken fellowship and devotion to one Lord.  Together we share in an offering of the “least coin”.

In gratitude for the blessings of life, church women developed the Blessing Box, an over-and-above offering given out of gratitude for blessings.  It is a gift to the whole mission of the church.  Children, youth, men and women often share together in these many gifts of remembrance and thanksgiving.

 

Group offerings, through Disciples Mission Fund, help support the work of the General Office of the Christian Church, 35 regions, 9 seminaries and foundation houses, 17 colleges and universities, unity concerns, overseas ministries, homeland ministries, social and health services, stewardship and finances of the church, ministerial relief, communication, archives and so much more.
