Marriage & Family Enrichment Ministry
This ministry is designed to instruct, direct and counsel engaged and married couples through the Word of God. We provide spiritual knowledge and comprehension as it relates to marriage God’s way. Marriage is not a game and the vows are not to be taken lightly; however, far too often we see that they are. It is incumbent upon the church to have a strong Marriage Ministry that exhibits, exemplifies and teaches the Word of God’s intent for a marriage and family to be complete.

For Matured women of God to serve together in unity: Loving one another, building up one another, lifting one another, praying for one another and equipping the Sisterhood(all women of the church) to do work of evangelism at home, in the community, state, national and abroad. Living by Matt. 28:19-20 Go ye therefore and teach all nations, baptizing them in the Name of the Father and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, teaching them observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you, and lo, I'm with you alway, even until the end of the world.Amen

Tribal Ministry
The Tribal Ministry is here to build and strengthen the connections that members of Pilgrim Rest Missionary Baptist Church (PRMBC) share and to encourage closer fellowship and relationships between new and current members of the church. The purpose is not to create separate churches within PRMBC. There remains one church, one pastor and one congregation.
The Tribal Ministry organizes members of PRMBC into tribes based on the birth month of the head of the household. The name of each tribe is based on the Twelve Tribes or Houses of Israel, which God commanded Moses to organize in order to take a census of the congregation of Israel. The twelve tribes of Israel and the corresponding birth month for each PRMBC tribe are the following:
- Reuben (January)
- Simeon (February)
- Gad (March)
- Judah (April)
- Issachar (May)
- Zebulun (June)
- Ephraim (July)
- Manasseh (August)
- Benjamin (September)
- Dan (October)
- Asher (November)
- Naphtali (December)
