Greetings!    I am the Southern Regional Women's Ministry Consultant.  My mission is to empower women to be the best God has called them to be.  In doing so, I aim to provide resources UCC offers and use my spiritual gifts as a speaker, coach, or workshops/seminar presenter. 

As your consultant/partner, one of my goals is to learn more about the present activities within and among the churches, and participate in them if possible. So call me if you need me!  In addition, it is my hope to gather information on women events that each church conducts and share it with other women in the region.  If you are in the Southern conference, please log onto our website and join us. Receive updates on what the women in the conference are planning.  

I continue to be excited about working with the women in the United Church of Christ!  Presently, I am an associate minister at Maple Temple UCC, Raleigh NC, under the leadership of Pastor-Teacher K. Ray Hill.  I am an advocate for single parents and the founder of Spring, Inc.-A National Single Parenting Ministry (www.spring-inc.org).  I am a proud parent of W. Rayvon Hawkins.

I have obtained training as an intentional interim pastor, a Masters of Divinity from Virginia Union University, and presently completing a Doctor of Ministry from Regent University.  My ministerial skills consist of serving as a mental therapist rendering counseling services to adults and children; an adjunct religion instructor, hospital chaplain providing pastoral care and counseling as a hospital chaplain, received three clinical pastoral education (CPE) units.  In addition, I am the author of two books: She Builds a Vineyard: A Single Parent Struggles to Survive & the Journal.  www.shebuildsavineyard.com

Please let me know how I can serve you.  I look forward to working together!

Blessings,

Dr. Willie Mae Hawkins
