 About Us Connections for Women is a 501 (c) 3 organization whose goal is to encourage, equip and empower women on their journey through life. We are registered as a charitable organization with the Pennsylvania Deptartment of State's Bureau of Charitable Organizations. Our Mission: Motivated by the love of God, our mission is to reach out in service among women of the Slate Belt. “Connections for Women” exists to provide a place where relationships among women begin and develop into life giving, life changing and life strengthening experiences. We seek to encourage women to realize their full potential by directing them to utilize the tools available to them through public and private services and by offering personal support as they become advocates for themselves and their families. We Value: Grace over Law Relationship over Program Empowering over Enabling Long term commitment over Short term commitment Community over Isolation Equipping over Hindering Acceptance over Discrimination Unconditional love over Rejection
Statement of Faith: We believe in one God, Creator and Lord of the Universe, the Trinity: Father, Son, Holy Spirit. - We believe that Jesus Christ, God's Son, was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the virgin Mary, and lived a sinless life. He died on the cross, removing our guilt and reconciling us to God. He rose bodily from the dead and ascended into heaven where He is the only mediator between God and man.
- We believe that all Scripture is inspired by God and is profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness, that the believer may be adequate, equipped for every good work.
- We believe in one holy, universal and apostolic Church, which is called to worship God, preach the Gospel, make disciples, promote righteousness and justice, and relieve human need.
- We believe the Holy Spirit persuades us to repent of our sins, renews our hearts, gifts each believer with special abilities to serve God and the Church, and causes the Church and its people to grow in Christian maturity
- We believe that Christ will return to raise the dead, judge all people, and establish His glorious Kingdom
It is also our conviction that these beliefs should not be forced on anyone, but should be made available for those who desire to know more.
