WOMAS

The Women's Ministry at Shiloh, known as WOMAS was formed in the fall of 2001.  The purpose of the ministry is to reach women and serve women in the church as well as women in the metropolitan area.  WOMAS has had offered women the opportunity to fellowship together for events at  the Kennedy Center, retreats at Coolfont West Virginia, Harbor Towne at St.Michaels Maryland as well as the church as well as Bible studies at various member's homes.

WOMAS tries to work together with other ministries in the church, such as co-sponsoring events that included a dialogue and book signing for Dr.Dorothy Height.  WOMAS has also sponsored community activities hosting Dr.Toni Morrison and co-sponsored a major conference for Women in the Ministry.
