Dear Friend,
August marks a special time in our calendar as we come together to celebrate Women’s Month. We honour not only the biblical heroines but also the present day women who continue to shape our world with their tenacity, compassion, and most of all their faith. Whether in the boardroom, the classroom, or the home, women’s contributions are invaluable and worthy of recognition. Please see below for related articles.
We also have a selection of resources for women, including books, bibles, devotionals, diaries, gifts, and much more. Do visit our bookstore in Botha’s Hill to explore this, or shop online.
