The Women’s Council would like to thank you for using this study program. The program has nine topics based on the theme, in Developing “Assisting Gifts and Talents.” It is the hope of the Council that where there are branches or missions, domestically and overseas, women will gather together to use this material. Where there is not a branch or mission, if there are two or three - or even one sister - the material can still be used. The desire of the Council is that this program will draw us closer to God, closer to each other, and closer to our goal of the kingdom. The booklet contains nine lessons. Each lesson will have a worship, study, and fellowship/activity component. In the worship component, you will find scriptures, a hymn, and a short story to help focus your thoughts on the lesson. Next, you will find the study component. The material here will have scriptures, a narrative discussing the topic, and discussion questions to be utilized, if desired. Lastly, you will discover a suggested activity that will provide time for fellowship and interacting with each other. Please adapt and use this material according to your needs and interests. The intention of the Council is that this material will be used each month, starting in September. Again, the Council would like to thank you for your participation in this program. Whether you are in Iowa, India, Blackgum, or Belarus, we can gain strength knowing where two or three are gathered in the Lord’s name, touching on a common goal, the Lord will be there. May God bless you as you study this material. The Women’s Council 2017
