2. Volunteer at the Caring Pregnancy Center. In my research for this message, I discovered that Christian widows were known for rescuing babies. Unwanted babies would be left in the marketplace and older Christian women would comb these public places, scoop up the babies and place them in Christian homes. God can use you to save children and provide hope to young women at the CPC.

3. Look for practical ways to train the younger. Perhaps the Lord is asking you to consider the step of adopting a child, or to begin praying for orphan children around the world. By participating in Operation Christmas Child and Project Angel Tree you can impact young lives in unforgettable ways.

4. Take the mentoring challenge. Start with your daughters or granddaughters, or your nieces. By the way, this passage isn’t limited to women over 60 teaching women under 40. It also includes those in their 30s training those who just got married. And, women in their 20s can be good role models for those in their teens through the Student Ministry. And godly teenagers can train young girls in Promiseland or AWANA. Those with younger sisters should be looking for ways to provide meaningful mentoring to their siblings. I want to encourage every woman here to get into a mentoring relationship with another woman. If you’re older, seek out someone who is younger. If you’re younger, find an older person. A new mentoring ministry called, “Apples of Gold” will hold a pilot program in February. Stop by the table in the hallway for more information.
