Christian Women's Job Corps of Tyler (CWJC Tyler) is a community program offering job and life skills to women in the East Texas area who have a financial need to work and who lack the necessary resources for education and training, specifically in the area of job skills.
Christian Women's Job Corps Offers A Hand Up, Not a Handout!
Purpose
The purpose of Christian Women's Job Corps of Tyler (CWJC Tyler) is to provide a Christian context in which women in need are equipped for life and employment and a mission context in which women help women.
Statement of Faith
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.
