Beautifully Redeemed And Victoriously Empowered
The B.R.A.V.E ministry helps women to begin and grow in their relationship with God through Biblical teaching and fostering of community.
To accomplish this we “Connect women of all ages together through Biblical discipleship, spiritual development, community fellowship, and personal edifying relationships with other women.”
MEET OUR LEADER
FIRST LADY BRITTANY YATES
First Lady Brittany Yates has served as the Director of the Women’s Ministry at Bethany Community Church since November 2019, where she pours into the lives of women; helping them to grow in their personal relationships with Jesus Christ while realizing their purpose. Beyond Bethany, Lady Brit serves as a homemaker, supporting Pastor Nate and homeschooling their three children. Prior to deciding to dedicate herself to the care of her family and ministry within the church, Lady Brit served the needs of others in the community. Her care for others led her to serve in the arenas of child welfare, counseling, and medical social work. Lady Brit is also a licensed clinical social work therapist who offers Christian-based therapeutic counseling to help others. Academically, Lady Brit has earned a Bachelor of Science in Social Work from Bowie State University, and a Master of Social Work from the University of Maryland Baltimore (UMB). Lady Brit seeks opportunities to help women grow and fulfill their God-given purpose.
Our ministry seeks to equip and empower women to boldly carry out the great commission of sharing the gospel and developing others.
We believe that all are created with a purpose, and that we must develop and cultivate the gifts that God has given us, in order to become what He has called us to be. Therefore, our ministry strives to help women develop their gifts for the kingdom.
"Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go."
-Joshua 1:9
Through Conferences, Fellowships, and Focus Studies, our women seek to walk alongside one another as God continues to mold us into all that He has called us to be as Kingdom Women, and as His daughters.
