Looking for materials?
For those of you who are continually looking for programming helps, I suggest purchasing one of the CD's available through the LWML catalog. Helps are listed in three ways; alphabetically, subject or topic, and type of material. You can read the skit, devotion or Bible study and if you decide to use it, print a copy.
Program Helps on CD: Volume I (Code #59995) consists of 85 devotions, skits, and Bible studies. Program Helps: Christmas Collection on CD (Code #51011) focuses on the Christmas season. Program Helps on CD – Volume II (Code #59996) has another 47 different helps for you to use. Each CD is $15.00. I recommend each society purchase a copy of one or all three of these helps.
Listed below are some other ideas for your society meetings. If you have any question about these resources contact me at: christianlife@lwmlmnn.org
Lent and Easter will be here soon!
