We encourage women to be prayerful in their personal lives and in their families.  We also provide the opportunity for women to be intercessors on behalf of our church, individuals and the women’s ministry.  We have faithful group of women meeting in Hannah’s Prayer in different Zones.

The Wife of Noble Character

Women of Wisdom at Glad Tidings Fellowship (High-Glen) Church is about building a God fearing girl/woman growing closer to Christ and each other in Christ.  It’s about becoming women of wisdom and honor who can be trusted, who live lives of fearing the Lord.  Honor for all her hands have done, and let her works bring her praise at the City Gate.
