The Pike County Center for Women's Ministries is a place for healing the emotions and the spirit. The focus is on healthy relationships: one to another and one to Christ. 

Often a person's hurts are too personal and too deep to share with someone they know or already have an established relationship with.

Our peer-counselors have been where you are. This in itself can bring much benefit to know she already has a level of understanding to assist someone's needs. 

The Center for Women's Ministries provides complete confidentiality and a non-judgmental atmosphere, making it a safe place to begin to deal with those hurts. 

There is no secret formula, but there is the unconditional love of many caring volunteers: women helping women find a better way of life. 

What We Are Not
Though we are part of the universal church body, we are not a church. We want to provide a welcoming atmosphere for hurting women, whatever their religious beliefs or whatever their church affiliation. We encourage church attendance and have a Christian foundation for all our teaching. All women are welcome to our services.

We are not professional therapists. We recognize that some women need the help of someone more extensively trained than we are. In such situations, we refer from an approved list of professionals.

Why Our Center is Needed

• Cost of professional counsel often keeps many women from pursuing help
• Breakdown of family support systems
• High level of stress factors in our world today
• Many times the pastor is a male and women may not feel comfortable sharing intimate details of their life
• Overload on pastors for counseling
