About Us

Since its formation in September of 2003, Christian Women's Job Corps of McLennan County has helped equip women in Waco and surrounding areas with both job training and life skills. Through a year long mentorship and an education program, we have encouraged women to be self-confident, self-sufficient, and productive while developing meaningful relationships.

Twelve classes with a total of 80 women have completed classes. Sixty five percent of our graduates are now employed. They are employees at companies such as Spenco, NuTone Cleaners, The Freeman Center, Baylor University, McDonald’s, Auto Zone, Visiting Angels, Day Care Center, Walgreen’s, Providence Health Center, Cargill and SOS Telemarketing. Some of our graduates are continuing their education at McLennan Community College or Texas State Technical College.

What We Believe

We believe in the Trinity, God as Father, Son and Holy Spirit and the Bible as the Word of God. Salvation comes through grace by believing in Jesus Christ as the only begotten Son of God, our Savior and Lord. Once saved, the Holy Spirit indwells, thereby instructing, guiding and empowering the individual to follow the mandate of Jesus Christ in daily living.

Mission Statement

      “The mission of Christian Women’s Job Corps is to provide women in need development of life skills and employment education classes taught in a Christian context where women mentor women.”
