ABOUT US

Standing Women International Praying Network

A network of women who gather to pray, grow, and stand for each other, until every one of us is walking fully in what God called us to do.

OUR STORY

Why we started standing

Standing Women International Praying Network started with a simple conviction: women carry a purpose the world cannot afford for them to miss. What began as women coming together to pray for one another has grown into an international network: twelve groups, conferences that pull women in from across Nigeria and beyond, and a yearly gathering every July that women plan their year around. We're not interested in being a crowd. We're interested in women who actually grow.

OUR VISION

“To build, empower, engage, and call women back to their divine mandate: helping, nurturing, building, and supporting a Christ-like family, and in turn, turning society to Christ.”

OUR MISSION

What we're committed to

Nine things we don't compromise on:

01.We teach the word of God without watering it down.
02.We live a lifestyle of prayer and fasting.
03.We help women discover exactly who they are in Christ.
04.We show up for conferences, seminars, and trainings together.
05.We network and fellowship with one another.
06.We stand in the gap for our families, churches, ministries, and nations.
07.We worship without holding back.
08.We disciple younger women and mentor each other.
09.We take our health, wellbeing, and appearance seriously too.

WHO THIS IS FOR

A space built only for women

Standing Women is strictly a women's network. We come together to wake up the gifts already sitting inside us, the ones God placed there long before we noticed them, so we can walk into the purpose He planned, not the one we settled for.

OUR ANCHOR SCRIPTURE

“Awake, awake; put on thy strength, O Zion; put on thy beautiful garments, O Jerusalem, the holy city: for henceforth there shall no more come into thee the uncircumcised and the unclean. Shake thyself from the dust; arise, and sit down, O Jerusalem: loose thyself from the bands of thy neck, O captive daughter of Zion.”

Isaiah 52:1–2

WHO LEADS US

Standing Women is convened by Apostle Dr. Esther Ekwutosi Madubufo, who also leads Fruitful Men and Women Ministry International.
