Work of the Southern Moravian Women

Our Ship - Oasis of the Seas - Photo Cred: Kari Vetter July 2025  Dear Sisters,  It seems like it was only yesterday that I was sitting in a meeting in Charleston, West Virginia listening to details about the 14th Women’s Conference. Fast forward two years later and WOW! I had a blast on the cruise. Congratulations on a job well done. Committee members thank you!   I was a first time cruiser and conference attendee. I had never been to Jamaica. So as you can see there were many things that were a first for me. Would I do this again? Oh, yes! I can’t wait to see what and where the Northern Providence decides to hold the 15th conference.  I was not disappointed in the ships accommodations. My room was adequate in size and I had a large window to watch the waves. The many dining areas really surprised me. The service and food was wonderful. I felt really pampered!  The best part of the conference were the Moravian women that I met. Their laughter, prayers, mus...

  Book Order  for 2025   The Bible Study book will be titled Waiting on the Lord By Rev. Evette J Campbell INTRODUCTION: Life is replete with waiting, a struggle that resonates with many of us. Waiting, an integral part of life, is not something most of us handle with ease. We inhabit a world that champions instant gratification, a “microwave” culture, where waiting is not only unpopular but is considered a waste of time because it is believed that nothing can be achieved in waiting. This societal norm may mirror our experiences, but it sharply contradicts the spiritual principles we hold dear. It is common to grumble and complain about the challenge of waiting, and this is a sentiment that we can all relate to. Admittedly, waiting can often lead to frustration, but let’s pause for a moment to consider the immense value of embracing the waiting process. Waiting, though arduous, yields significant benefits that would not have been realized otherwise. In the conte...

  A newsletter presented by the: Provincial Women's Board   A letter from our President: Dear Sisters, I will be completing my service to the Provincial Women’s Board in a couple of weeks. It has been a joy to serve on this board for the past 8 years. I have had the pleasure of serving with other women on the board who are dedicated to the work this board does for the Southern Province. I will certainly miss serving on the board and the members I have come to know so well. The greatest enjoyment has been meeting many women from other churches that I normally would not meet. The women of the Southern Province are awesome. I am constantly amazed at how well the Women’s Fellowships function in the communities they serve, as well as in the community we share as Moravians. I look forward to the continuing work of the board and the opportunities to see many of you again. The board and I thank you all for your support of the Provincial Women’s Board. We could not do any...
