“Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”
— Matthew 28:19-20
The Vision
Reach One More is a two-year initiative challenging everyone involved in WMU to intentionally invest in one more person for the sake of the Gospel.
Everyone involved in WMU is encouraged to pray for and disciple one woman or girl, helping her grow in her faith and become engaged in God’s mission. Small obedience can lead to eternal Kingdom impact.
The Goal
During the next two years, everyone involved in WMU will:
• Pray for one person consistently
• Invest in a relationship intentionally
• Disciple her in God’s Word
• Invite her into missions involvement
• Multiply by encouraging her to reach one more
Why It Matters
The future of missions and the church depends on intentional discipleship today.
When everyone involved in WMU invests in just one more person, the impact multiplies across churches, communities, and nations.
What This Looks Like
Everyone involved in WMU can reach one more by:
✔ Discipling a woman or girl
✔ Meeting regularly for prayer or Bible study
✔ Serving together in missions projects
✔ Encouraging spiritual growth and leadership
How God is Working
-
Over the past few months I have been able to build relationships with three young adult women who are extremely eager to grow in their faith. They have been coming over to my house one night a week to study the Bible together and to talk through different aspects of walking with God.
It has been extremely encouraging and convicting to me to see their enthusiasm for pursuing Christ and boldness to obey Him however He leads.

I spent a significant amount of time praying for her, and we also prayed together as we walked through this process. I began sharing with her how WMU functions—both within individual churches and collectively at the associational level.
Her heart is truly for those young ladies and helping them see Jesus in every area of their lives. Each time we gather, we spend time in Bible study, talking through the challenges they’re facing and pointing them to how Jesus meets them in those moments.

Over the course of a semester, I had the privilege of meeting weekly with a college student for discipleship at a local coffee shop. Together, we prayed, walked through the book of John, and encouraged one another in our faith.
Although she initially approached me to disciple her, I quickly realized that the Lord was using our time to shape and grow both of us. Her hunger for God’s Word and willingness to grow challenged and strengthened my own walk with Christ. It was a sweet reminder that discipleship is never one-sided.
