Role of Pastor's Wives in Church Ministry

Pastor's wives should not feel obligated to take on major areas of church ministry, but it is acceptable if they choose to do so. This approach aligns with treating pastor's wives no differently from other members and ensuring a healthy level of involvement. Limiting the time volunteers spend away from the main service is crucial, demonstrating a thoughtful balance in ministry engagement.
