Women's Groups

Throughout my ministr(ies), we have had strong women’s groups. One Women’s Association found itself in the curious position of being the only Women’s Association left in the United Women’s Association. I have called women’s groups the “backbone” of the Church -- and so they are, if one pages through any Church minutes. Often they are elderly – however, it has been shown that a strong component of elderly people – on condition that this is balanced with other age groups – promotes growth in the Church. OBSERVATION: Since this is, in a sense, an educational blog, a potential problem with older women is that they may become downhearted – one might say negative – yet with spiritual encouragement, this is always overcome.
