Salem Women

We glorify God, make disciples, and share His story

Intentional, Relational, Missional

At Salem Women's Ministry, we prayerfully seek to glorify God by offering events and activities for our church and community that are biblically-focused and address the spiritual needs of women, support missions, and promote fellowship, thereby encouraging and strengthening each woman's relationship with Jesus Christ.

Though prayer, God's word, and the power of the Holy Spirit, we desire to create a fellowship of women that serve others with compassion, and love each other with a spirit of grace and forgiveness.

Upcoming Events

Salem Women’s Ministry Kickoff
The women of Salem are invited to the SWM Kickoff on September 25 from 2 – 4 pm in the fellowship hall. Join us for food, fellowship and see what the Salem Women’s Ministry has planned for the upcoming year.

Discipleship

We typically have several women's bible studies options each spring, summer and fall. Please check our Discipleship Classes page for a complete listing, descriptions, and registration information.

Barker-Howell Service Fellowship

Salem’s Barker-Howell Service Fellowship honors the two women who pioneered Salem’s Women’s Ministry and has glorified Christ through many years of thriving service and fellowship. Currently, the group blesses women and families in our church and community in several capacities. Monthly, they lead an open group that meets at Spring Arbor Assisted Living Facility on fourth Wednesdays at 10:00 am to share God’s word and music with the residents there through a “Sing-A-Long”. They also offer Bible studies at Spring Arbor, most recently in the Memory Unit. Each December, Barker-Howell Service Fellowship partners with the Raleigh Baptist Association's annual cake ministry, collecting and donating cakes to a local women's prison, blessing the inmates and their families with a rare time of fellowship around the holidays. Barker-Howell Service Fellowship also manages Salem's hospital equipment room which loans out medical equipment to members in need of those items, and when requested, organizes meals for families when funerals are held at Salem. Please contact the church office for more information or to get involved.

Women's Workout

We’re back in person! The Grit & Grace Ladies are working out again on Tuesday nights at 6:30 in the multipurpose room. If you would enjoy 30 to 45 minutes of fitness, fun, and fellowship, come join us. We alternate weeks with Strength and Cardio and Refit (dance-type) workouts. You don’t have to know anything about fitness or dance—we show lots of modifications for all ages and fitness levels, and the best thing is it’s a NO judgment zone! Lesley Schmidt plans great strength and cardio exercises, and Tammy Pressley organizes the Refit time. For more information, email Tammy Pressley at tpressley@salem-bc.org.
