Since God in his mercy has given us this ministry, we never lose heart (II Corinthians 4:1 REV).
In Georgia Lutherans are few and far between; small LWML groups are the norm. I well know the struggle to get more women involved. Often the focus is more on increasing numbers than the LWML mission and it’s hard not to lose heart. Years ago God showed me that even two can do something, so I choose to focus on our LWML mission and vision, knowing that if we are “serving with gladness,” others will see our joy and come to work alongside us.
To remind myself of this, and to share with others, I use II Corinthians 4:1 in my email signature.
