idea share :: local PW groups
>> August 20, 2009
Hi girls,
Janice, a PW in North Carolina, asks:
I'm starting a group for PWs here locally. Do you have any suggestions? My first meeting is scheduled for September 10. I've wanted to do this for years, and I'm finally doing it!Got any ideas for Janice? Ways to contact PWs? Things to do?
Leave a comment below so she can stock up on ideas!

I read on Holly Furtick's blog that she has the ladies listen to a sermon/podcast to encourage them and to discuss when they get together. It may be great to have a theme, so the first few times you get together won't have those awkward silences.
Depends on where you are and how much turf guarding plays into it. You wouldn't think that would be an issue among christian communities and especially "the church" but it is out there. We experienced this in the beginning of our church plant but it has been awesome to see God unite our churches in our small town over the last five years. A ministerial alliance was started about six years ago and that was a great catalyst to uniting churches of different denominations. If you have something like a ministerial alliance in your area I wonder if going through that would help getting word out to other pastor's wives that you want to have a meeting. Also, if you have time to have breakfast or lunch with just a few of your local churches PW's before your first meeting....let them know of your vision and see if they can tell four more PW about it. I think it's a great idea and I pray God will guide you as you seek to encourage other PW's in your area.
