Brainstorming ! ! !

Months ago, a challenge was put out there!

Any woman that would like to take part in a brainstorming session
about Women's Ministry....
....should come and talk to me!

What could it look like?
How will it evolve?
Is it something that is even needed or wanted?

Strangely enough, not a single person came and grabbed a hold of me,
....telling me that they simply could not wait
....to sit down and talk about Women's Ministry. :-)

It came to where a decision was made!
Some ladies would just get a personal phone call and...
....yes, we had our first brainstorming session Monday evening, March 16th.

For personal and last minute reasons,
the group ended up being smaller that first expected;
....still, a lot was discussed
...and some good suggestions and ideas were presented.

We are having another brainstorming session around the middle of April.

Would love to see some ideas and suggestions in the comment box!

Where does Women's money go?

After reading Sherri's new post, my daughter sent me this short video and I just couldn't help myself; I had to post it here.
It is just for fun and I know that this is not the only thing our money is used for!

Women & Money

Dori and I have prepared and led a day-long presentation for women about money. The first was the end of February in BC. Judging by the seminar evaluation forms, women found it helpful. The next one is in Ontario at the end of March.

What is the problem with money? Why do some women feel money is a mystery they can't solve? What is it about money that sometimes makes our knees shake? How can we help each other manage our money wisely?

If you are willing, please consider posting or emailing your questions, queries and thoughts about money. I'll try to answer or I will point you to someone who can.

You'll also be helping Dori and I prepare future presentations to women.
