Yes. They eliminated Men's ministry (Askew) and Family Ministries (Duncan) a long time ago, along with the "Specialized Ministries" banner. I think it was over two years ago. I heard Women's ministry survived mainly because it was nearly self-supporting.

they still support these, but not with international office-specific personnel and resources.
Thanks, Brent "RamboPreacher" Hoefling

I suppose its a matter of priorities. I think men's ministry is better served on a local church level...For that matter I think women's is also but as long as the women's department can keep turning a profit I think they will leave it alone.

Can anyone tell me what falls under the umbrella of women's ministry? And could those things be handled under some other ministry?

This is the best men's ministry material I've ever seen. The men in our local church have LOVED this.

I would highly recommend it.

I believe it's just Women's Ministry now (retreats, etc.). One Child Fund and Helping Hands, which previously were overseen by Cathy Payne, are now completely under the "Global Outreach" umbrella. She does serve on the Global Outreach Committee (among other roles, I assume).
