Connect, Encourage and Equip Pastors Wives

Feed My Sheep Pastors Wives is a two-day conference to connect, encourage and equip pastors wives.

Ministry is a challenging and a joy. It’s not easy balancing the demands of a church’s schedule and expectations. But it is a joyful gift. Through biblical teaching and sweet fellowship, we want FMS>PW to be a comforting and tender call to persevere in ministry.

More than anything, we want women to know that Christ—not conferences, retreats, or even one another—is an all-sufficient Savior. We, like Paul, should desire to know “nothing among you except Jesus Christ and him crucified” (1 Cor. 2:2). The most important encouragement is believing and treasuring Jesus Christ!

So if you are a pastor’s wife, elder’s wife, or the wife of a husband preparing for ministry, we invite you to join us for Feed My Sheep Pastors Wives. Register today or sign up for important announcements.

Christ Is All

“For in him the whole fullness of deity dwells bodily, and you have been filled in him, who is the head of all rule and authority.” – Colossians 2:9-10

 

To be united to Jesus Christ is to have absolutely everything. All joy, hope, peace, purpose, and salvation are bound up in him. Following Christ, caring for a family, supporting a pastor-husband, and thriving in a local church requires so much grace. We need godly counsel and wisdom. We need friendships and forgiveness. But there is nothing we need more than Jesus. Christ Is All!

Christ Is All! is the theme of this year’s conference. We invite you to gather with other women to sing about and be encouraged by the sufficiency of Christ. 

Keynote Speaker

 


Jenny Manley

A former Chief of Staff in the U.S. Senate, Jenny now happily lives in the Middle East, where she serves in an international church in the United Arab Emirates with her husband Josh, a church planter and pastor, and their five children. Helping women from all over the world study Scripture in a Christ-exalting, God-glorifying way is one of her greatest joys. She is originally from Mississippi and is an unashamedly fanatic fan of the Mississippi State Bulldogs. She is the author of The Good Portion: Christ, a doctrinal book to help women know and love Jesus more deeply.

 

Additional Speakers

Sarah Rogers
Talk – “Christ’s Sufficiency on Tuesday Afternoon”

Sarah started following Christ in 1998. A native of Columbia, South Carolina, Sarah attended North Greenville University where she received a degree in Elementary Education. She met and married Matt Rogers in 2003, and many adventures followed—the births of their five children (ages 15 to 3 years old), homeschooling the kids, as well as church planting and merging in Greenville, SC. Sarah loves being a wife to Matt, a mom to their kids, and equipping women to fulfill the ministry God has given them so Jesus is known and worshiped. Sarah also serves as the Women’s Ministry Coordinator for The Pillar Network.

Jaynie Timmons
Talk – “The Heart of Envy”

Jaynie grew up in Marietta, Georgia, in a Christian home where she often heard the gospel. She came to saving faith in Christ at a young age. She graduated from the University of Georgia with a B.A. in Linguistics in 2015 and received her Masters of Divinity in Biblical Counseling from The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in 2019. She has been a member of Mount Vernon Baptist Church since 2011. She met her husband Jeffrey at MVBC, where he now serves as Assistant Pastor/Missions. Jaynie and Jeffrey are the proud and happy new parents to their son Chandler.
