Disciples Women

Women's Action Web: it's about the action

What makes WAW special? Most past participants would probably agree that ACTION is what makes WAW a unique experience. The simple definition of action is "the process of doing". So simple and yet so powerful as women of WAW are moved to ACTION as they observe women just like themselves in the process of doing, doing by advocating, getting involved the their communities, and helping others to not only have the basic needs of food, shelter, health, clothing, safety, education, and employment, but also self esteem and the opportunity for a better life for themselves, their families and their communities.

WAW has allowed women to experience life changing insights in Kentucky Appalachia, in Southern California, and will soon offer opportunity to do so in Virginia and Washington, D. C. The WEB of past WAW experiences has spread into similar insights along the Border of Mexico, the mountains of West Virginia, and inner cities of the U.S.. Women taking the risk to join a WAW experience are seeing with their own eyes, hearing with their own ears, and having their hearts touched by the action taken by women of all ages and walks of life who dare to make a difference.

Won't you join your sisters in the journey of WAW? Be prepared to witness women moving mountains and to be inspired to make your part of the world a better place.
