I.N.V.E.S.T. Women’s Ministry Mission Statement Revised: August 10, 2020
The “I.N.V.E.S.T” ministry has already been an important part of Heartland Baptist Fellowship. Our desire is to take the foundation that has been started and continue to build upon it this year.
Here are the (6) goals for I.N.V.E.S.T.
I ~ To Instill Godly relationships between all the women of HBF
N ~ To Nurture the women of HBF with principles from the Word of God
V ~ To Envison future ministry opportunities for the women at HBF
E ~ To Encourage the women of HBF to get involved in all the ministries of HBF
S ~ To Serve the women of HBF and the other members of the church

In each case they may be applied differently but gleaned from the Word of God to strengthen their personal relationships with the Lord, their husbands, children, and whatever their situation is at home.
