Pastors' Wives Thriving in the Fishbowl

Why merely survive when you can THRIVE?

Welcome to an online ministry of help, support, and encouragement to wives of pastors, ministers, missionaries, and clergy. At pastorswives.org, we help each other thrive in our "fishbowl life," not just survive. If your husband is in vocational ministry--whether he ministers part-time or full-time; to children, youth, or adults--you have found a community of women facing similar joys and challenges. You're the pastor's wife, and you're among friends!

Talk with Other Ministry Wives

Our Message Board allows you to "talk" with other pastors' wives from around the world. We'll laugh with you, cry with you, share with you, learn with you, and pray with you. We don't have all the answers, but we can point you to the One who does. Let's walk this road together, as sisters and friends. You're the pastor's wife, and you need encouragement.

Discover Internet Resources & Find Help in Crisis

The internet is full of helpful information... if you can find it! We have links to everything for the ministry family -- retreat centers, cabins for rent, discounts to use, and much more! As a pastor's wife, it can be hard to know where to go for help in a crisis. Confidential sources are out there just for wives of pastors, as well as for ministry couples. Find the professional, group, or ministry that can provide the specific help and support you need. You're the pastor's wife, and you need help.

Learn From Other Pastors' Wives

Gain wisdom and insight into issues that we as pastors' wives share---handling criticism, dealing with gossip, cooking for potlucks, finding shower gifts, and other issues and concerns. You're the pastor's wife, and you need mentoring.

Be Encouraged

We all need encouraging words. Find a fresh wind and comfort in God's Word, and in the encouraging words of other ministry wives. Relax and enjoy the company of women whom you can identify with and who can understand you. You're the pastor's wife, and you need friends!
