DALLAS, April 11 /Christian Newswire/ -- The average woman longs for security, acceptance and a place to belong. Despite the best of intentions, churches often fall short of meeting these deep needs. Many would love to experience dynamic women's ministry but don't know how to begin. Now your church can become part of a worldwide movement that partners with women's ministries to reach and connect women and transform lives--one girlfriend at a time!
Girlfriends Unlimited™ is a membership-based program for churches that provides innovative ways for women to relate, have fun, and find purpose. It offers churches a model for a "front porch" ministry that will reach women in the church and in the community, inspiring and motivating them to discover a significant relationship with Jesus.
The ministry was founded in 2000 by Lisa Jernigan and Patty Wyatt, who became close friends after they both lost their mothers. As they reflected on the "legacy of friendship" their moms had left behind, they realized that it has become harder than ever for women to make friends in our society, and there was something they and their church could do to help. They began to see the enormous mission field in their community.
Though many women outside the church do not recognize their need for Jesus, every woman experiences the longing for true friendship. Girlfriends Unlimited was created both to draw in women who ache for friendship but are threatened by the idea of "church" and to encourage women already in the church to form life-changing relationships with one another.
Girlfriends Unlimited, recently acquired by Group Publishing, equips member churches with everything they need to become a dynamic place that nurtures and cares for women, leading them to Jesus while having a blast on the journey! The first year membership is $299 which includes set up fees and starter kit and the annual renewal is $149. Benefits include:
