WWAM - Women with a Mission
WWAM is a multi-generational group of women who meet monthly to learn more about our missionary families. WWAM is a way to keep up-to-date with missions and connect personally with the missionaries by way of missionary speakers, videos, and correspondence from around the world.
After the group session, the women break into small groups to pray for specific missionaries. WWAM meets on the third Thursday of the month at 9:00 a.m. and again at 7:00 p.m. Both meetings are essentially the same except that childcare is offered in the morning.
