Plan
now to observe Women’s History Month in your congregation.
Choose one or more of these activities:
- Do
a women’s history “minute” during morning worship. Ask a
layperson, United Methodist Women’s unit, or a youth to do a
five-minute profile on a biblical woman, woman bishop, or a woman in
your congregation.
- Create
a bulletin insert with a word search or word scramble puzzle based
on biblical women. On the following Sunday, include the solution to the
puzzles, along with a brief description of the Biblical women.
- Ask
a woman in your local church to create a devotional guide based on
her favorite scriptures and inspirational writings.
- Invite
a local Christian woman in business, politics, or education to speak
during worship about how her faith influences her life and work.
- Host
an art show at your church, featuring Christian women artists from
around your community, or sponsor a concert featuring women
musicians. If you do it
as a fundraiser, donate proceeds to ministries that benefit girls
and women.
- Form
a women’s chorale to offer music during worship in place of or in
addition to your regular choir.
- Ask
your congregation’s drama club or youth Sunday school class to
perform one skit each Sunday addressing an issue related to
Christian women.
- Invite
a woman Volunteer in Mission to show slides about women in mission
worldwide.
- Have
the women in your church create Women’s History Banners.
This would involve the seamstresses of the church and those
who love arts and crafts.
- Have
a speaker share with the your congregation about Domestic Violence
Awareness.
