Getting Started

            To begin your women's ministries group, it is vital to access the needs of your individual group. Here are some questions you might wish to use to evaluating your needs.


            ~ What are the strengths and talents of your women?
            ~ What are the weakness or dislikes of your women?
            ~What would you like for your group to be like in five(5) years?
            ~Know the ages of your group - What are the needs of the different ages?

            ~~~~~~~~~~Young Women - might want information concerning organization skills, ideas for children, teens, menu planning, nutritional education, first aid, marriage and family relationship skills, working mom tips, single mom issues........


            ~~~~~~~~~~Middle Age Women - could need ideas and encouragement in the area of launching their children into adulthood, college years, raising their grandchildren, starting over with a career, caring for their parents......


            ~~~~~~~~~~Senior Women - Adjusting to spouse being home after retirement, adjusting to health problems, adjusting to being a widow (actually this one could be in any group),.....


            ~~~~~~~~~~Treasured Women - Depression, Loneliness, Feeling Useless...so much loving needs to be here.


            ~How often do you plan to meet?
            ~What time frame will you have for each meeting?
            ~Where will you want your meetings?

            * * * When setting up your committee.....Try to have a representative from each cell group/Sunday School.

            * * * If you set your committee up with each person representing a committee: The possiblity of involvement dramatically increases. In other words, a six(6) person committee becomes 36 women involved in ministry....if each woman has six(6) women on her committee.
