TOUCH A HEART, TELL THE WORLD

Renew, the 2012 Women’s Devotional book is a blessing in at least three ways: the women who write for it are great blessed; the women who read the book receive a spiritual blessing (making this the perfect gift for any woman in your life!); and the women who receive the scholarships receive a life-changing blessing. You may become part of this by buying and sharing the books, by writing a devotional (See Devotional Book under main menu) or by writing to GCWM at the address on back of Mosaic; or by either applying for a scholarship yourself or helping someone else access this blessing. You can get information from your Women’s Ministries director on this website.

The year 2012 is the ideal time to Renew your spiritual life!

2012 International Day of Prayer

“FAITH IN ACTION”

The theme for the 2012 Day of Prayer packet is “Faith in Action.” My sisters, this is the time to put our faith in action. We live in a world where people need to see God in action. They need to feel God’s loving touch. They need to hear God’s words of love and care for them. God asked, “Whom can I send” (Isa. 6:8a). My prayer is that we can all resoundingly reply, “Here am I! Send me” (Isa. 6:8b).

I know you will find encouragement in this packet written by Claire Sanches-Schutte, WM director for the Trans-European Division.

"Nurture, Empower, and Outreach” Focus Equips Women
for Ministry

A Ministry For Every Woman: Touch a Heart, Tell The World

“A Ministry for Every Woman: Touch a Heart, Tell the World” is a program developed by General Conference Women’s Ministries to advance the work of sharing the gospel using the methods that Christ used.

There are three areas of focus when it comes to equipping, training, and inspiring women to serve: Nurture, Empower, and Outreach.

NURTURE: Reach up - To help women in their devotional time and personal growth, enabling them to be nurturers in the church and community.
EMPOWER: Reach across - To equip women for their activities and projects for the church and community.
OUTREACH: Reach out - To help women use small group fellowship to reach others in their community.

GC Women’s Ministries provides guidelines, ideas, and resources for each of these three areas of ministry. For more information click here.

EMPOWER - Reach Across

Outreach is for everyone! Do you believe that? Not many women believe that they can do outreach. But you can. Methods of evangelism come in many different sizes and shapes. It’s not one size fits all; but we are confident that you will find a size that will fit you and through you God will win a precious soul to His kingdom.

The Outreach is for Everyone: Women’s Ministries Evangelism Manual includes fifteen chapters. Each 60 minute chapter can be used as a training event for the women in the local church or for personal study. The material includes 15 PowerPoint Presentations.

This is a valuable resource to train and equip women for many types of evangelism. To download the material click here.
