          A year in review for WELS Women’s Ministry

          2022/12/10/in WM News

          2022 has been an exciting year for Women’s Ministry. To begin, over 2,000 subscribers are receiving our newsletter! That’s double last year’s number at this time.

          Enjoy walking through a review of the year with us!


          UPDATES

          Connection Call
          Connection Call (formerly Talk on Tuesday) is an opportunity to talk through your ministry questions and ideas. Check it out!

          Restructure
          We continue to restructure our teams and workflow in order to make better use of resources and create opportunities for women to get involved serving the synod through Women’s Ministry. E-mail us if you are interested in finding out what serving with Women’s Ministry looks like.

          Social Media Presence
          By adding dedicated personnel to social media, we’ve been able to make a better connection with all of you. Over 1,000 followers are connected on Instagram alone! Make sure to like, subscribe, and share on Facebook and Instagram.


          NEW

          Advent by Candlelight Webinar
          We hosted our first webinar on Advent by Candlelight. It was very well attended and received. (Watch the recording.) Make sure to tune in to our next one on Thursday, January 26, at 7:00 p.m. CST. We are talking about encouraging personal and corporate prayer among believers.

          Advent by Candlelight
          “Come, Lord Jesus,” based on the theme for Church Year A in The Foundation, was developed for use throughout the synod. Look for a new Lent by Candlelight coming soon!

          Advent Devotions
          Almost 1,000 subscribers are enjoying the Advent devotional series “Come, Lord Jesus.” You can subscribe to receive this edifying e-mail in your inbox through this link.

          Online Classes
          Bible Basics for Bible Study Teachers (a 401 course to Equip Women to Teach the Word) and Heirs Together were offered online this year. Look for new sessions starting in 2023.

          Bible Study
          An Ephesians Bible study used as resource material for the 2022 Women’s Ministry Conference was updated and made available in September. Check out our Bible studies.

          WELS Women’s Ministry Conference
          We hosted our fifth triennial Women’s Ministry Conference! Over 300 women gathered in July to be encouraged with the message we are Won to be One from the book of Ephesians. Three days of God’s Word, inspiring speakers, engaging breakouts, joyful worship, and uplifting encouragement from Christian sisters left us nurtured, encouraged, and equipped to bring grace and peace to the world we live in.
