Mission Statement:

 

To mobilize women to act boldly on their faith in Jesus Christ.

Declaración de misión: movilizar a las mujeres para actuar con valentía en base a su fe en Jesucristo

This mission statement was born out of an organizational self-assessment in 2001. Within the framework of the mission statement, Women of the ELCA carries out its purpose statement, which expounds upon the mission, providing further explanation of the mission.

The programmatic theme for the 2005–2008 triennium is "Act Boldly," giving women in the organization the opportunity to explore their boldness and to act upon it in various arenas and activities of daily life.

Purpose Statement:

As a community of women 
 created in the image of God,
 called to discipleship in Jesus Christ, and 
 empowered by the Holy Spirit,  
we commit ourselves to 
 grow in faith, 
 affirm our gifts, 
 support one another in our callings, 
 engage in ministry and action, and 
 promote healing and wholeness  
  in the church,  
  the society, and 
  the world.

El Propósito:
En tanto que somos una comunidad de mujeres
 creadas a imagen de Dios, 
 llamadas a convertirnos en discípulas de Jesucristo, y
 fortalecidas por el Espíritu Santo, 
nos comprometemos a
 crecer en la fe, 
 afirmar nuestros dones, 
 apoyarnos las unas a las otras en nuestras respectivas
  vocaciones, 
 involucrarnos en el ejercicio del ministerio y la acción, y 
 promover la sanación y la integridad 
  en la iglesia, 
  la sociedad y 
  el mundo.
