Ministers' Wives Luncheon 2026


The Ministers’ Wives Luncheon is a gathering designed to encourage and refresh the women who serve alongside pastors and ministry leaders across Arkansas. Held prior to the Arkansas Baptists Annual Meeting, this is an opportunity to connect with other minister's wives in fellowship and be strengthened through biblical encouragement. This year's theme, Prayer: A Prayer of Release, invites us to surrender our burdens to the Lord, trust Him more deeply, and experience the peace that comes from placing every part of our lives and ministries in His hands. We hope you'll join us on October 19, 2026 at FBC Rogers from 12pm - 2pm. We will meet in room D-200, Student Worship Room.

Childcare will not be provided at the annual meeting. Please make arrangements for childcare on your own.
