Women to Women's Ministry
Ministerio Mujeres a Mujeres
 
 
Brief History:

 

Around mid year in 2003, the first meetings were motivated by Rev. Barbara Greicar. Through workshops, we started preparing ourselves until we formed the Women to Women Council, ready and capable to share.

 

Group’s Rules:

 

·        Confidentiality

·        No Judging

·        Know how to listen, not only with our ears but with our hearts

 

Purpose:

 

A group in where with confidentiality we are able to open our hearts knowing that we find other women who know how to listen, support and therefore initiate the healing process of our pains and sorrows. Happiness as well.

 

Reach:

 

At first we started with the women of our own church. For approximately 3 years we have been offering workshops to the women participating in the Humboldt Park Social Services Interim Housing Program.

 

Today we have the capability and possibility of assisting other support groups:

  • Women from the community are welcome
  • Workshops directed to Church Women’s groups
  • Bilingual workshops

Breve Historia:
