"A World Influenced by Discipled Women"

We fulfill this vision & mission by:

HELPING evangelical women and men to understand and appropriate the truth that they are equally created in the image of God, valued, called, and gifted by God for ministry;

ENCOURAGING the body of Christ to identify and maximize women's gifts;

MOBILIZING evangelical women to effectively meet the needs of people in their families, churches and societies;

PROVIDING evangelical women with access to information, network systems, events and leadership training & skills training;

DISCIPLING women globally by identifying their unique needs and then meeting those needs through evangelism, encouragement, education and example.

We implement this mission through:

• global partnerships with other national & international women's ministries;
  
• networks with WEA's global body of commissions, affiliates, and regional & national church alliances;
  
• maintaining contact with women's ministries/organizations and governments worldwide;
  
• events sponsored by CWC such as leadership consultations and training institutes, symposiums, round table discussions, and conferences;
  
• production of materials, as required, regarding the church's ministry to and with women.

This Commission exists to meet the unique needs of women around the world. In doing so, the CWC provides an internationally respected voice for women, especially in the church. It identifies concerns and solutions, and calls the church and the evangelical community to give more public attention to the plight of women, to recognize all injustices women experience, and to take action to alleviate them. The CWC also calls the church and the evangelical community together for networking, facilitating, mobilizing, motivating and cooperating as a global body in the area of women's concerns.
