Our Purpose

As a community of women
created in the image of God,
called to discipleship in Jesus Christ,
and empowered by the Holy Spirit,

We commit ourselves to grow in faith,
affirm our gifts,
support one another in our callings,
engage in ministry and action,
and promote healing and wholeness
in the church, the society, and the world.

 

Our Mission

To mobilize women to act boldly on their faith in Jesus Christ.

 

Brainstorming Ideas

We will update this area as we get more ideas from CU Brainstorming Sessions

From St. Paul's, Cheyenne, WY

How do you make welcome single women and women ages 22 to 30? Do they have a place in your church, a position, a thing? Get across the message that the old fogies are more "hip" ,(yes, even this is an old fashioned word) than assumed and interested in the vision and needs of this group. This age is a time of finding one's place in the world, and we need to make sure that one of those places is the Women's Organization, or Women's Ministries.

  • Place: provide a "Graffiti Board", a place to celebrate, post notes, congratulations, concerns, prayers, programs, news, activities, high fives, praise, care notes, art and affirmations. This will be a constantly changing place, a place that anyone can write on or post to.
  • Virtual – on the web or Facebook
  • Physical – a bulletin board, cork board, and or white board.

Send out quick interactive bible studies via text or Facebook. Example: pick a bible reference and make an observation about how it applies to daily life, how it might shed light on a current event in the news, ask for feedback.

Sponsor young women to events; catch them early while still in high school. Provide annual scholarships.
