The Dream of WIML

The efforts and concepts of the WIML Network are born from decades of focus

by the founder, Dr. Marion Ingegneri.

The WIML Collective is a celebration of the multiplication of the ministry

to and for female leaders

and the growing brotherhood of WIML champions!

Defining WIML

WIML, Women in Ministry Leadership, is an egalitarian organization postured with a biblical perspective that God calls both men and women to Kingdom service. Within the WIML network one can expect to find healthy environments of growth, dedication to missional perspectives, opportunities to connect with other female leaders, and discover the worldwide champions of WIML!

The WIML team is dedicated to a growing network of women leading with significant spiritual oversight. The WIML network seeks to advise and coach female leaders as they navigate their Ephesians 4 calling as apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, and teachers.

WIML is equally dedicated to a woman leading in the marketplace. Business as mission is an important topic that the WIML team is willing to approach. The WIML network seeks to create environments that promote healthy female leaders that serve both inside and outside the walls of the church.

Advancing Leadership Development

It is the preferred practice for ongoing leadership development to include both men and women. As such, WIML works in collaboration with the Ministry Leader Network in providing a pathway for the leadership development of individuals, teams, churches and organizations. This partnership further endorses women in ministry and marketplace environments by offering a mainstream lifestyle of leadership growth and development

“Empowerment, equipping, and encouragement adequately describes the network and its leader, Marion Ingegneri. For women to invest in their leadership and join with others already moving in the same direction of influence and spheres of connection is essential to opportunity. The cohort prepares, and the network launches you into a community of like-minded individuals championing one another. We have seen women gain clarity, confidence and courage to activate into the "next" of their lives and leadership.”

Wendy Nolasco, Sr. Director U.S. Mission + General Supervisor | The Foursquare Church.

“Knowing the time is short, God is calling and mobilizing women into ministry leadership more than ever, and the WIML Network is one of the most effective ministries He’s using.  We’re proud to be part of it!”

Dr. Steve Schell, President | Life Lessons Publishing

Having worked with Dr. Marion Ingegneri for a number of years in ministry leadership, I couldn’t think of a better ministry to recommend women than WIML.  My prayer is that many “Aimee Semple McPhersons” will be encouraged in ministry to trust God for fruitful discipleship, healings, and miracles.

Dr. Sterling Brackett, President | The Echo Park Evangelistic Association

Marion Ingegneri’s ministry centers around the great truth that people are God’s tools of choice. The peer cohorts she gathers ‘sharpen’ one another and create a lasting community for leaders who want to keep developing.

She prods wisely and advocates relentlessly for women and men to aim higher in service to Jesus. That’s why I’m proud to give her a blanket ‘Yes’ to any request for help or involvement.

Dr. Daniel A Brown, PhD, Author, Church Planter Leader | The Commended Network

Marion Ingegneri is one of the greatest women leaders I have encountered in the faith community. Her ability to inspire women to be more than they see in themselves, combined with the encouragement and wisdom she offers, speaks volumes to the leadership she has held for so many years. I’ll never forget one of the first impact moments of her texting me saying “I BELIEVE in you.” Wow! Those words not only fueled my purpose but inspired me to speak the same to others who I aligned with. I am honored to call her a friend and without a doubt, she is truly a BOSS Woman!

Michelle Robinson, President | Holland Robinson Publishing & Shine Like a Boss Conferences

Marion is not a hidden heroine stepping into the battle for dynamic and flourishing women. Her global and national impact is producing mature disciples and multiplying leaders from all walks of life; abundant fruit that lasts. With a coach approach to men and women, Marion Ingegneri and the WIML network connect authentically to the unique design of those they serve. The end result is a life-giving and fulfilling calling to expand the gospel.
