| A message from Shelly Johns, women's/senior adult associate |
As the Women’s Ministry and Senior Adult Associate, my goal is to encourage, equip and support leaders in these areas to effectively reach, disciple and multiply healthy (spiritual, mental, physical and emotional) Christian leaders in their churches.
It is my privilege to work within these two groups of leaders, as both are important and influential groups in the life of every church. For more information on senior adult ministry, click here.
The 2009 Senior Living Celebrations are slated for Monday, April 20, Tuesday, April 21, and Thursday, April 23. Locations, speakers and more coming soon!

If your church is sponsoring a Christian event, targeting women, please let us know. An "event" can be a conference, a concert, a mission trip that will allow other churches to participate, a block party, etc. Although we reserve full editorial rights, we will do our best to include your event. Thanks for helping us stay connected to God and others!

 We can honor God not only by how we live (walk and talk) but how we eat! Taking care of our bodies should be one of our main priorities. Take a look at LifeWay's Christian wellness plan, Fit 4. It's for the "heart, soul, mind and strength!"
