 The
small email discussion groups were developed so that the women could do
more than just share information, they could be involved in each others
lives in such a way that they can truly encourage each other to be
godly Proverbs 31 Women.
Each cell group has a name, most based on flower and plant names. Each
cell group also has a leader to monitor discussion and encourage women
to discuss issues related to the Seven Principles
of the Proverbs 31 Woman. The development of friendships is
encouraged in all groups and the discussion is not always serious.
Prayer concerns are shared, and Scripture is often discussed as women
ask questions about passages they have read. Each cell group is unique
and has its own ever-changing character.
Regular Cell Groups:
The regular cell groups discuss issues that are relevant to most women,
such as married life and parenting, as well as homemaking issues from a
scriptural stand point. The current list of active regular cell groups
are: Daffodil, Gardenia, Lilac, and Sunflower.
All cell group members are expected to follow the Proverbs
31 Online Community Guidelines.
Special
Focus Cell Groups
Because women have different needs and different concerns, over the
past few years we have added several special focus cell groups.
The addition of these groups is based on needs
expressed and the availability of leadership.
NEW!!....The Bluebell
cell group (p31bluebell@proverbs31.org)
provides support and encouragement for women suffering with Chronic
Illness.
The Heather
cell group (p31heather@proverbs31.org)
encourages and supports home-schooling moms. This group discusses
issues related to home-schooling, including resources for
home-schooling, and home-schooling problems.
The Iris cell
group (p31irisdw@proverbs31.org) supports
and encourages women who are divorced or are going through divorce.
This does not mean the Proverbs 31 Ministries encourages divorce, but
accept that this a reality and that divorced women have special needs
for healing and support as they go forward in life to serve God.
The Manna for Today cell
group (p31manna_for_today@proverbs31.org)
has been set up by request to encourage women to live a healthy
lifestyle and develop better eating and exercise habits. This group
will concentrate on scriptural principles and will encourage the women
to mature spiritually and live a life that will enable them to serve
the Lord better.
The Orchid cell
group (p31orchid@proverbs31.org)
is for mature women. This group discusses issues of interest to most
women over 40. The topics will be based on need, but may include
menopause and empty nest issues.
The
Pastor's Wives cell
group (p31pw@proverbs31.org)
has been set up to support and encourage the wives of men in
full-time pastoral leadership.
Our Sapphire
cell group (p31sapphires@proverbs31.org)
targets single women over the age of 25. By single we mean
women who are not currently living in a marital relationship and
include widowed, separated, and divorced women.
The Wisteria
cell group (p31wisteria@proverbs31.org) is
for women who are gainfully employed outside the home or through a
home-based business.
Because of the limited enrollment in the
small groups, members of the Proverbs 31 Online Ministry may
participate in a total of 2 different cell group e-mail lists
(excluding the main discussion group called Noblewoman and the book
club).
