From the Desk of the President

Dear Sisters in Christ,

As the founder and the current president of All Nations Women Ministries, Inc. (ANWM), I am so blessed to be a part of this non-profit Christian Organization since its 1999 inauguration date.

God has called me and many other women to do His work through this ministry. The main purpose of ANWM is to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ through the power of the Holy Spirit. In that, Jesus Christ power; which is the only power that there is, has been touching women around the world through salvation, miracles, healing, deliverance, and also through financial support.

Sisters, God has done amazing things through this ministry, which are positively affecting so many lives throughout the world. 

The ANWM women believe in reading and meditating in the Holy Bible, praying, fasting and also believe that God is calling women from all nations to work in unity to do amazing things for the Kingdom of God.

The women who are the faces of this ministry are sisters from all walks of life as they represent many denominational groups and churches. In the ANWM, we all come together as one with the purpose and commitment to follow the Gospel of Jesus Christ through the power of the Holy Spirit to minister and help women globally.

I would like to invite you to be a part of this amazing ministry, so you too can be an ambassador of Jesus Christ in doing His good work. Thank you for your support.
Be Blessed,

Elizabeth Eden

The Board of Directors

Many years ago, God spoke to Elizabeth through a divine vision that women have the gift of communication; which the Bible points out how the women were followers of Jesus Christ to proclaim the Gospel to all nations. The Bible also explains how women were prayer warriors achieving a great revival after the resurrection of Jesus Christ.


God has called Elizabeth to develop and support many missions to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ and the power of the Holy Spirit in many churches, prison wards, orphanages, and rehabilitation centers here in the USA and other countries, such as, Brazil, Haiti, and countries in the Middle East. She also developed and implemented Bible studies and women’s conferences that were well attended by women from many nations.
