“Grandma, do you have time to play with me?” “If you have time, could you come to church for a committee meeting tomorrow?” “I’d love to go to lunch with you this week if you have time.” Sound familiar?
LWML is asking a similar question: In what way might we compete for people’s time? The leadership team suggested these initiatives as part of our strategic planning:
-
Create, initiate, and implement effective, relevantly focused, meaningful events
-
Develop time-sensitive, flexible, and varied events
-
Develop meaningful personal relationships
-
Include unique Christian relationship opportunities
-
Engage with a local mission entity for a one-time servant event.
I challenge you to consider ways to embrace one or more of these ideas for your LWML. As a result more women may find time to participate.
And God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that having all sufficiency in all things at all times, you may abound in every good work (2 Corinthians 9:8).
