Resources for Women Reaching Women

A Women's Ministries Handbook with helps for local women's groups has been written, using materials from Chloe Koslowsky, outgoing WMCLB Director of Women's Ministries, and other women in ministry. It uses a 3-ring binder format, to enable groups to add updated material. It will be available to all CLB women's groups, and other interested individuals.

How can you get one? A free copy has being given to each church in attendance at a training event. You may contact your district president if you have not received one. You are invited to purchase any additional volumes for your church library.

Interested individuals may purchase their own personal copy for $25 plus postage from Faith & Fellowship Press, Box 655, Fergus Falls, MN 56538, (ffbooks@clba.org) or from their own Women's Ministries District President.
