The list we have compiled are women in ministry that we hear about in the church world and in the “secular”world that have impacted men and women positively and we love it! This list is NOT according to rank or status given we don’t believe that exist or should exist in the Body of Christ, yet these women deserve honor, respect and acknowledgement.  We intend to continue this list so please share with us others that are impacting in your community and/or the world!
