About WAW

Women Around the World Ministries was created to reach God's beautiful women for the Kingdom of Christ. It is our goal to share His gospel with all women, regardless of age, race or cultural background. Our Creator, God the Father, loves each of His daughters. We know that God has a plan to take what seems to us like "not enough and make it more than enough." Our purpose is to share the message that Jesus is our Redeemer and that He has personally purchased each one of us as a precious treasure. He teaches us that we each have matchless value, regardless of our past failures or shortcomings. In Him we are restored, beautiful and worthy to share His love story with those around us and those around the world.

Darlene Rhodes, founder of WAW, co-pastor with her husband Darryl at Solid Rock Family Church in Farmington, Missouri. Darlene began speaking at Ladies Conferences internationally, as well as state-side in 1996. In 2005, she started a yearly conference at her home church. God has used that yearly conference to launch WAW Ministries, connecting women from many cultures world-wide. Darlene rejoices in the fact that many of the other conferences she conducts are a result of a God ordained team of women, who seek God and share a passion for reaching and empowering women around the world. She has experienced miracles firsthand and often says that God took her "not enough" and made it more than enough! Darlene loves spending time with her family, pastoring and having coffee in unique coffee shops around the world with the love of her life, Darryl!
