And he took the damsel by the hand, and said unto her, Talitha cumi; which is being interpreted, Damsel, I say unto thee, arise.

Women Rizing is the Women’s Ministry of The Church of Berachah and the brainchild of Assistant Pastor Evangelist Stephy Nobles-Beans, in Spokane, Washington.

It was over 17 years ago that she arrived in Spokane, Washington, bound, wounded and rejected. It was here in Spokane that her ministry was truly birthed and that ministry was called WOW (Women of War). She is from a lineage of women who are prayer warriors, and they taught her that prayer was and is the key to get to God.

Women of War touched the lives of many women not only in this community but outside of Spokane as well, in California, Texas, Las Vegas, Oregon, and New Jersey. Her mission was to pray and minister to hurting and wounded women. Then there was a shift in the atmosphere, times changed, but God did not. As she laid before the Lord and asked Him about the ministry that He had entrusted her with, she asked “Lord what do you want me to do?” God responded so sweetly…You are no longer wounded, and it is time for you to “Rise!” As she continued to pray and lay before the Father, her heart was filled with revelation about this ministry.

In 2006, Women of War transitioned into “Women Rizing”. Our Mission is to continually minister to women who have been wounded, rejected, and neglected. This ministry has been part of Pine Lode Pre-Release prison in Medical Lake, WA., since 1998. This ministry empowers, women to “Rise” from the midst of their past and move forward into their “Destinies.”

What are you rising from? What challenges have you overcome? What mountains have you had to climb. God is calling His women to “Rise” to grow stronger in Him, and to become wiser in Him to mount up like wings of an eagle and SOAR in Him!

Our Goal is to spiritually and culturally bring women together from every venue, every walk of life and network with one another, to pray for one another and to support one another in the ministries.

To share with one another what God is doing in their lives and what He has birthed in our sisters. Women Rizing is connecting with other women from other churches throughout the land and we are excited!

It ain’t a black thing, it ain’t a white thing, it ain’t a colored thing…It’s a Kingdom Thing! We are excited for those who have come into partnership with us, because God is looking for a few good builders for the Kingdom of God.

Finally when you look at Women Rizing you will see that it has a z in the spelling…when you look up rising you will find the word raze. God said that we were born to “Raze” hell!

Raze means to: destroy, demolish, annihilate level, flatten, wreck ruin, and tear down! Women Rizing was born to RAZE hell. We are tearing down the enemy’s camp.

As the scripture in Mark 5:41 says: “Arise” my sisters “Arise!” You were born for such a time as this! Welcome to Women Rizing!

God Bless,
Evangelist Stephy Nobles-Beans
